Better Call, Saul

[user66118]

We only caught the tail end of this pot, but we can make some assumptions based on what we saw. When we joined the action Kevin Saul was in a heads-up pot with the gentleman in the nine seat. There were four cards out on the {A-Clubs} {8-Hearts} {8-Spades} {Q-Diamonds} board. Mr. Nine Seat was already all in for about 60,000 when we walked up, and his {A-Spades} {K-Clubs} was face-up in front of him. That leads us to assume that he got all in on the flop, but his hand was in bad shape. Saul was showing {6-Clubs} {8-Clubs} , one card from the knockout with trips.

River: {A-Diamonds} .

Mr. Nine Seat made a motion to stand up before the dealer halted him and began to count down his stack. It was another couple moments before he realized that he'd made the winning aces full, and Saul paid off the debt to slip back under 200,000.
