Obama has the dealer in his pocket for the heads-up poker match with Assad. The dealer slips Obama an Ace from the bottom of the deck. While some witnessed the sleight of hand, others said it was an authentic deal.
Obama's sitting on Big Slick, holding a King of course and his secret Ace, while Assad is dealt a lousy 2-7 off suit, widely considered the worst starting hand in hold 'em.
With the hole cards dealt both players hold them close to the vest. Obama makes the first bet "All in!" he says, seemingly throwing caution to the wind but really knowing all along that the game is rigged.
