Not the Way Hassab Expected to Win
Level 12
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
Mike Hassab just flagged us down to relate an interesting hand he'd just won.
Hassab explained that he and a short stack got it in preflop, with him holding 
and the latter 
. A race wasn't too special, but the way Hassab ended up winning �� without hitting an ace, king or straight �� was what made it noteworthy. You see, the board ran out 
, meaning Hassab won with quad nines and an ace kicker.
You don't see that everyday.
