Jonathan Alley Takes Advantage of "Magic Card"

Jan 10, 2018

Jonathan Alley

Lukas Gloor has lost two third of his stack early on and plumetted to around 11,000, while Parham Ahoor’s stack took a different direction. Ahoor is not the biggest stack at the table, though, as Jonathan Alley has even more than that.

While Ahoor and Alley were involved in yet another hand, back-to-back WPT champion Marvin Rettenmaier took a seat between them and saw Ahoor’s raise to 350 called by Alley on the button, the small blind and Nariman Yaghmai in the big blind came along.

The flop came Spade JClub 10Club 9 and action checked to Ahoor, who continued for 425. Only Alley called to see the Club 7 on the turn and Ahoor checked. Alley took the lead with a bet of 1,100 and Ahoor grinned, took off his sunglasses and folded with the words “magic card”.

Alley offered to pick one card and Ahoor exposed the Spade 10 for everybody to see, later adding in table chat that he made a “very big laydown.”

Jonathan Alley – 44,000
Parham Ahoor – 41,000
