It is no surprise when you have a celebrity at a poker table, there will always be someone trying their best to eliminate them. From the celebrities stand point, this can be either beneficial or detrimental. James Woods was a huge benefactor in a situation that ended up with him securing a double up here in the early stages of Day 1A.
Three players saw the dealer spread the flop of {Jd}{Jh}{Ks}. The first two players checked their action over to James Woods on the button and he would fire in a bet of 2,000. The small blind folded and the big blind tagged along to see the {Jc} on the turn.
After a slight deliberation the big blind led out for a bet of 5,000 which essentially put Woods all in. Before the dealer could even announced the action to the table, Woods tossed in his remaining chips and stood out of his seat.
“If you have a jack, you got me!” Woods exclaimed as he turned over {Ah}{Ac}.
“You win” His opponent said as he tossed his cards into the muck, visibly frustrated.
A meaningless {6c} hit the river and Woods would rake in the pot as he now sits with around 18,000 in chips.
