"It's Impossible for Me to Have an Ace"

Level 23 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Justin Liberto opened to 40,000 on the button and got calls from the blinds. Everyone checked the {a-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{a-Clubs} flop, and the {a-Diamonds} brought an interesting turn card. Greg Himmelbrand bet 50,000 out of the big blind, and Liberto chased away the third player with 140,000. Himmelbrand called, and the {k-Hearts} prompted him to check. Liberto bet 385,000, giving Himmelbrand pause. Ultimately, he let his hand go, exchanging some banter with Liberto afterwards.

"It's impossible for me to have an ace," Liberto said with a smile. "There were three of them out there."
