Galan's Hand Doesn't Work Out
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Dumitru Galan opened to 1,200 from the cutoff and action folded to Anton Yakuba in the big blind, who shoved for 15,500 total.
"This is my hand," Galan said as he pondered a call. "I'm sorry, this is my hand. Call."
Anton Yakuba: A♥8♥
Dumitru Galan: 6♦5♥
Galan was drawing live, but the A♠A♣8♠ gave Yakuba a full house and left Galan drawing dead.
The 7♣ turn and 2♠ river were dealt as a formality and Yakuba said, "I forgive you," in jest as he collected the pot.
