Turner Loves Poker...For Now
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Terry Turner and Josef Hollander went heads-up on a flop of 2♣7♥8♥ when Turner, in the big blind, moved all in for 400,000. Hollander, in the hijack, called.
Terry Turner: 8♦5♥
Josef Hollander: A♦A♠
Turner had flopped top pair but was still far behind Hollander who turned over two aces. The turn, though, came the 5♦ and Turner improved to two pair.
The 3♦ on the river sealed his double up as Hollander handed over the pot with his cracked aces.
"I get aces and win nothing. Then I double up with eight-five. That's poker. It's a game you love. Twenty minutes from now I'm going to hate the damn game," Turner said.
