Nelson Providing the Chuckles

Level 1 : 25/50, 0 ante
Shane Nelson is all smiles early.
Shane Nelson is all smiles early.

According to Shane Nelson, he just scooped a pot in which an opponent bet 200 into at least five opponents after a {2-}{5-}{5-} flop. Nelson was the only caller, and by the river a {q-} and {10-} had completed the board. Nelson led out for 50, and his opponent raised to 500. Nelson said he snap-called, and his opponent was unable to beat his {j-}{4-} for jack-high.

It's not a line you're likely to see on a training video any time soon, but Nelson said his tablemates "got a chuckle out of it."
