Icke's Wife Arrives Just in Time
Level 27
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
David Icke had made it clear to his tablemates that he was waiting for his wife to arrive before moving all in.
"Is Louisa here yet," he asked as action was on him.
"Is that a tell," a tablemate said before Icke did move all in but got no callers.
His wife then arrived on the rail and they shared a high five and clapped their hands together. "Next time you're all in you're going to get crushed," Icke was told by his table.
"Hey Louisa, I'm all in," Icke told his wife before he again moved in, this time for 1,325,000. Robert Damelian on the button asked for a count before calling.
David Icke: Q♥Q♣
Robert Damelian: 9♦9♣
Icke hit top set on the J♦10♣Q♠ flop, while Damelian had a straight draw. The board ran out 3♠7♣ and Icke survived.
