Whitesell Scores Big with Aces

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

As retold by players at the table, Rick Whitesell was in early position when the player under the gun limped into the pot. Whitesell raised to 800 and the player under the gun three-bet to 3,100. Whitesell placed the four-bet to 17,000 and the player under the gun shipped the rest of his chips in for 39,000. Whitesell called.

Under the gun: QxQx All in
Rick Whitesell: AxAx

The board ran out with Ax6x6x8x6x and Whitesell received a nice start to his tournament with a full house.
