Ash’s Aces (Four of ‘Em)


Gifted with pocket aces and a flop of A 5 Q, Ash Lopez from the big blind led out with 800 and saw calls from the cut-off and the small blind (Simon Lim).

The turn A made it even better for Ash, who now has quads. He led out for another 1,050 and got a call from the CO player as Lim folded. On the river 8, Lopez shoved but failed to get the call from his opponent. Perhaps a check on the river would have been better?
