Loya's Stack Can Take a Crack of Aces
Niveau 22
: 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
A kerfuffle around Table 485 signalled the cracking of aces by an underpair with a straight. The aces belonged to start of day big stack Thomas Loya, the underpair (
) to David Stonehouse, who'd moved all in preflop and found all the action he could want behind him.
The board ran out 
, a nine-high straight for Stonehouse. Fellow UK player Ali Zihni came over to inspect then congratulate.
"Ten bigs, what can I say?" said Stonehouse as he scooped in the pot.
