Amy's Victory Tops a Night of Bad Beats! - 4/03/10
April was a strange month at the Little League World Series of Poker with all the talk revolving around how the worst hands were taking down the big pots. Normally, the great stories come from Donald Glaude's tables, but on this night the best hand was probably going to be the loser if you got your chips in the middle. At the final table, Matt Johnson pushed in with 2/7 offsuit and managed to catch a 2-2-7 flop for the win.
Even with all the land mines to dodge, Amy Allen was able to get into head-to-head action with her own husband and the bad beats continued there! In the final hand of play, Mike slow played his pocket queens into oblivion as Amy flopped a straight after limping in with 2/5. That was enough to give her the victory and bragging rights in the Allen household for the rest of the month!
