Allen Cunningham Sick Call

I don’t remember this specific hand from the WSOP ESPN broadcasts, and I’m pretty sure I would have had this one stuck in my mind, or maybe it has been too long. Anyhow, this video is more proof when Allen Cunningham is just the sickest of the sick. He folds aces when he knows he’s […]
