A Happy Birthday to Mr. Asthon
Level 24
: 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Hand #50: Tony Cousineau completed with the showing and Matthew Ashton, who is actually celebrating his birthday today, called with the up. Ashton proceeded to call bets on fourth and fifth streets before betting when Cousineau checked on sixth. Both players then checked seventh and Cousineau showed that he had started with a pair of aces.
Unfortunately for him, that's what he ended with while Ashton improved to kings and deuces to win the pot.
