Rodriguez Claims Ace-High Like a Boss
Level 34
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Juan Rodriguez limped in the small blind, and Nariman Yaghmai checked his option from the big blind. The flop was 8♦4♥4♣, and both players checked.
On the turn K♣, Rodriguez checked, and Yaghmai took a stab and bet 1,600,000. Rodriguez called.
Rodriguez checked the river K♥, and Yaghmai went for the bet of 2,200,000. Rodriguez took his time and called.
Rodriguez slammed down A♠J♠, somehow knowing that Yaghmai was bluffing. Rodriguez celebrated when Yaghmai's hand was mucked.
Rodriguez shouted to his large rail, "Ace-high, baby," and the crowd burst into applause.
