Tong Hits Case Ace to Scoop For a Triple
Stud Hi-Lo
Kristopher Tong: A♥7♣3♠/2♥10♣5♦A♠
James Obst: 5♥6♥8♠/A♦10♥4♠4♦
Talal Shakerchi: A♣2♠8♥/4♥K♥4♣J♣
James Obst completed and Talal Shakerchi raised before Kristopher Tong three-bet with just a few chips behind. Obst called and Shakerchi four-bet to put Tong all in. Tong called and so did Obst.
"Good luck to me," said Tong.
Obst checked on fourth street and called a bet from Shakerchi. Shakerchi then bet on fifth street after pairing and Obst called. Obst checked on sixth street and Shakerchi also checked.
Obst checked once more on seventh street and Shakerchi also checked.
"I have aces right now. Is it good?" Tong said after hitting the case ace on sixth street. Tong then peeled his final card to reveal a scoop as he broke into celebration, while his opponents chopped the side pot.
"It's nice to get some breath," Tong said. "I haven't been able to breathe for two hours."
