Ace on the River

With the board reading {9-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{3-Hearts}, all the chips flew in with Adam Matusiak in tip top shape with {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts} versus the {A-Clubs}{9-Spades} of Mikael Andersson.

But it's the Poker Gods who have the final word, and after a blank {K-Spades} turn, fifth street delivered an - and in the words of one Barry Greenstein - "Ace on the River" to leave Matusiak with just a few thousand in shrapnel.
