Kings Into the Muck

Artem Litvninov is seated in seat one and just opened for 800. The dealer thought he wanted to fold though and mucked his cards. Max Silver had already invested in the pot but Litvinov had no cards anymore. Litvinov retrieved what he believed were his two cards from the muck, and the brush got called over.

The brush ruled that Litvinov's hand was dead, and that he was allowed to grab back 500 from his 800 raise. "I have two kings!" shouted Litvinov with an angry voice. "I go allin, no problem for me!" he continued angrily while he pushed his entire stack forward. It wouldn't go like that, he lost the 300 which would have been a limp, and that was it. "I have two kings and I lose 300!" he muttered to anybody who wanted to hear it.

Litvinov is still doing well with about 80,000 in chips.
