Ace from Space

Right out of the blue, we had an all-in showdown, Jeroen Kersjes raising to 21,000 (the pot, in fact), Kristian Svensson announcing all-in and Kersjes making the call.

Kersjes = {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}
Svensson {A-Hearts}{6-Spades}

"Yeeeeah!" cheered a jubilant Svensson as he peered through the window of an {8-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{A-Clubs} flop.

The {A-Spades} turn didn't change too much, neither did the {4-Spades} river, meaning Svensson had doubled through and left Kersjes with a face like someone who'd just smelt a scampi flavoured Nik-Nak.
