Downturn

Mike Wattel opened for 6,000 in the cutoff only for Jon Turner to reraise on the button. The gentleman in the big blind shoved, Wattel folded and Turner called.

"I got it," said Turner.

"Again?" said the suddenly panicking big blind, presumably thinking Turner meant aces. Turner just chuckled as his opponent's face melted in relief as they turned the cards over.

Turner: {8-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Big Blind Gentleman: {2-Spades}{2-Diamonds}

The board bricked out for Turner and his opponent doubled up.

"You looked like you prayed before you looked at your cards," another player told him.

Turner was left with 95,000.
