Unlikely Aces hold as Schievo Doubles Up
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Action began postflop with the board showing 7?3?9?. Left short stacked, Matt Schievo jammed all in for 17,500. One opponent called as both players flipped over their hands.
Shievo: A?A?
Opponent: 9?8?
The board ran out with the 6?7? to give Shievo the double up to 52,000. It was a lucky break as one player reported that "everyone at the table was in the hand" and Aces still managed to hold.
