Gregory Alston Elim... No, Hold On!

And within just a few moments it appeared as though we would be losing our second soldier from the battlefield, Gregory Alston reraising Al Barbieri's initial late-position raise before calling the subsequent all-in.

Alston could sense he was behind, and his gut instinct was right, with his {J-Hearts}{J-Clubs} in need of some divine intervention to successfully tackle Barbieri's {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts}.

However, Alston has clearly been saying his prayers and taking his vitamins as the the board was a kind one, the {8-Spades}{5-Clubs}{7-Clubs} flop being followed by a {J-Diamonds} turn even though Alston had specifically requested the {9-Clubs}.

As Alston jumped in the air in delight, a dejected Barbieri took the hit well and just scrunched up his face slightly as the dealer dealt out an uneventful {9-Clubs} river.

"I'm not normally this lucky," gleamed an ecstatic Alston as parts of the crowd shared in his delight.
