The Case of the Public Exposer

Level 3 : 50/100, 0 ante

A gentleman at table 394 had exposed his cards with action pending.

On a {7-}{j-}{q-} flop a player moved all in for about 1,200. Another player called and the third player said call but put out all his chips and flipped up his cards. Now because he said call and not all in the floor ruled that his only play was to call the 1,200 from the first player. Now the {k-} came on the turn. With the two other players still in action the first checks and the one who exposed his cards went all in.

The second player proceed to fold none other than pocket sevens for a flopped set. But how could he fold such a monster?

The exposed player's cards were none other than pocket jacks for second set. The jacks won the pot, knocked out the first player, and received a one round penalty for exposing his cards. But the real punishment was not getting all the chips from the set of sevens.
The whole table laughed and the man with pocket seven was relieved because in most circumstances he would not know his opponent held such a big set and would have gone broke.

Another case of making the minimum for being a public exposer.
