When you're short-stacked it helps to pick up Aces, and it's even better when you get action. After an even shorter stack went all-in for 1,800, Boutin pushed himself for 8,100. The player in Seat 3 called and Boutin's Aces had to hold out against pocket fives and Queens. There were no cries of "Presto!" nor did any ladies appear, and Boutin increased his stack to 22,000.
