"Sometimes a Nit Finds a Way"
After a raise preflop from David Soskin on the button, Steven Glasscock, Yahya Aamer, and Pam Belote all made the call.
"Pick me, pick me!" Soskin shouts as he does his signature mating call.
The flop comes out Q♦4♥6♠ and the action is checked to Soskin who then quickly announced that he was all in for 153,000.
After some thought, Glasscock made the call to put him at risk while Aamer quickly got out of the way. The action was then on Belote who went deep into the tank to consider her options. In the end, she decided to fold five-seven for an open-ended straight draw while the other two tabled their hands.
Glasscock tabled K♦Q♦ for top pair of queens but it was no good as Soskin dramatically flipped over A♠A♣ for a superior pair of aces.
The turn A♥ further improved him to top set and locked up the hand for him as the board completed with the 9♣. He was then pushed the massive pot for more than a double to rocket him to 345,000.
"Sometimes a nit finds a way," Glasscock repeated his statement from earlier as Soskin stacked up his chips.
"Hey! I'm a loose-aggressive player, how can I be a nit!" Soskin laughed.
