Event 14: Aces Hold

$260 + $40 Seniors NL

One of the biggest gripes you'll hear from amateur poker players is that their aces "never win." Just don't tell that to Tom Avila (Philadelphia, PA) who's AA holds against JJ and AK to knock out two players.

"Look at that, they do work," he says, while stacking 70k in chips.

After the haul, the floor breaks Avila's table and the field is down to less than 50 players.
