Hooshmand Runs Into Aces
Level 23
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Dennis John opened from under the gun to 65,000, but he was raised by Ahmad Hooshmand on his left, who moved all in for a total of 430,000 chips. All the other players folded to Steve McCluskey in the big blind, who also said "all in" with way more chips. Seeing this action, John folded.
Ahmad Hooshmand: A♦K♠
Steve McCluskey: A♥A♠
It was bad timing for Hooshmand, who couldn't do much against the best possible hand. After the board 5♣10♣K♦Q♠3♥, he stood up and went to collect his payout. Finishing 193rd, he won $2,223.
