Angelil's Heart Will Go On

Over at Rene Angelil's table, the player in Seat 7 raised in early position to 750. When action folded to Angelil, who some may recognize as the husband of Celine Dion, reraised to 2,650.

Seat 7, who had Angelil covered, declared that he was all in. Angelil made the call for his last few thousand and turned over {J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}. Seat 7 showed the better hand when he revealed {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs}.

The flop of {A-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{6-Hearts} was no help to Angelil. When the turn came {4-Diamonds}, he could only survive with one of the two remaining jacks. The river card was the {5-Clubs} and Angelil graciously made his exit.
