Loya's Stack Can Take a Crack of Aces

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

A kerfuffle around Table 485 signalled the cracking of aces by an underpair with a straight. The aces belonged to start of day big stack Thomas Loya, the underpair ({7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}) to David Stonehouse, who'd moved all in preflop and found all the action he could want behind him.

The board ran out {8-Spades}{5-}{6-}{9-}{8-}, a nine-high straight for Stonehouse. Fellow UK player Ali Zihni came over to inspect then congratulate.

"Ten bigs, what can I say?" said Stonehouse as he scooped in the pot.
