Ace-High For Makowsky

Jordan Morgan raised to 500 with Dan Makowsky making the call along with the player in the big blind to see a flop of {5-Spades}{J-Clubs}{6-Hearts}.

Play checked to Morgan who fired 1,100 with Makowsky making the call as the big blind stepped aside. The turn brought the {7-Diamonds} and Morgan fired 3,200 with Makowsky calling once more.

The river was the {3-Diamonds} and Morgan reached for chips but decided to check and Makowsky checked behind.

"Eight-high," sighed Morgan (which means he must've been holding {8-}{2-}) as Makowsky opened {A-Spades}{8-Spades} for ace-high to take it down. Both players have around 40,000 chips.
