After he arrived at the table "with 28,000, three big blinds," 94-year old Sam Kobrinsky called from the hijack after a player opened from early position. The cutoff three-bet and made the initial raiser fold. But Kobrinsky decided to go all-in for 330,000. He was called by the cutoff.
Sam Kobrinsky: J♣10♣ 
Cutoff: A♣K♣
Both players flopped a pair, but the cutoff remained in the lead on J♠4♥A♠. However Kobrinsky was lucky enough to hit two pair with the 10♦ turn to double up after the 2♠ river.
