Ace From Space Keeps Torres Alive
Level 30
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Jason James had won the previous two pots with all-in shoves before he moved all in again from the cutoff. Louie Torres snap-called for 1,500,000 on the button and the blinds both got out of the way.
Louie Torres: A?K?
Jason James: 2?2?
James remained in front as the board came 4?5?Q?6? as Torres was already standing up from his seat preparing to make his exit. The river, though, brought the A? to keep him alive in the tournament.
"Push or fold. The strategy hasn't failed yet. Hopefully, everybody gets knocked out before me," Torres said as he sat back down.
