Eric Eisenberg needed an ace.

The senior finance major at Washington University in St. Louis had just gone all-in to rescue his chance of winning the $25,000 first prize at Susquehanna International Group L.L.P.'s inaugural college

His opponent, Ayres Fan, a Massachusetts Institute of Technology doctoral candidate, had just paired a seven on the hand's fourth card, leaving Eisenberg with a remote chance of winning.
