A Free Lesson From Sach

Three limpers, including Jim Sachindis, saw a flop of {10-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{K-Spades}. The player under-the-gun fired out 1,200 and Sachindis re-raised all in. His opponent made the call and flipped {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs} but Sachindis had out-flopped him with his {K-Hearts}{10-Hearts}.

The turn was the {4-Spades} and river the {9-Clubs}, and Sachindis scooped the pot to send his opponent's aces crashing to the rail.

As Sachindis collected the pot worth 7,500, he decided to provide a free lesson for his departing opponent, "Limp under the gun with aces? That's not how it teaches you in the books, is it? Go and play PokerPro!"
