Keating Far in the Lead
Level 34
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Nozomu Shimizu went all in the first hand back from dinner and got no callers. After folding a few hands after, Keating told him he thought he would be shoving every hand, to which Shimizu responded with a shove when it folded to him. Keating made the call.
Nozomu Shimizu: K?5?
Alex Keating: A?K?
The flop rolled A?3?3? and Keating celebrated by shouting, "Ace-uh!" while Shimizu rooted for a four to make a straight draw. The turn closed the door on Shimizu with the A? and Keating soared into the lead as the useless 4? fell on the river.
