$20-40 NLHE at LC. There was a must-move game and a main game. I was in the main game. No one had left the main game for several hours and that allowed the must-move game to remain shorthanded for several hours with mostly the same players playing the whole time.
A seat came open in the main game. The must move game was three-handed. The player who got called to the main game from the must-move game had just taken the big blind. The rule is he is allowed to play through his button before moving. That would be two more hands. The players in the must-move game all agreed. “Two more hands,” I heard them say. Then they would send a player to the main game.
On the next-to-last hand of the must-move game, nothing happened. On the last hand, everything happened. The small blind had $5,000 and QQ. The big blind had $5,000 and K5 of clubs. The button had them covered, and AA. The button made it $180 to go and both blinds called.
The flop was K-x-x with two clubs. The small blind bet out $500. The big blind called. The button raised $1000. The small blind called. The big blind went all-in. The button called and the small blind called. The aces held up. The button went home. The small blind went home. The big blind went home. The man on the mike said, “One seat open, twenty forty no limit.”
