Aces Cracked After 'Misclick' in WSOP Paradise Super Main Event
A player had aces cracked in brutal fashion on Day 1b of the $25,000 Super Main Event at World Series of Poker Paradise (WSOPP) after what he said was a "mislick."
The second starting flight of the event with a $60 million guaranteed prize pool — the biggest in history — drew 375 runners, less than half of the massive Day 1a flight. But the event is still on track to at least near the guarantee with two remaining starting flights.
Set of Aces Cracked By Runner-Runner Flush
The hand took place during the final level of the night with blinds of 15,000/25,000/25,000. American high-stakes pro Aram Oganyan opened to 50,000 in the cutoff and Matthew Wantman called on the button before Kyle Lin min-three-bet to 75,000 in the small blind.
Possibly sniffing a misclick, Austrian pro Daniel Rezaei three-bet jammed for around 600,000 as Oganyan and Wantman folded. But Lin wasn't going anywhere.
Daniel Rezaei: K♥3♥
Kyle Lin: A♥A♠
Rezaei had picked the wrong time to make a move as the flop landed A♣6♥5♣ to give his opponent top set. Or had he? The board proceeded to run out J♥10♥ to give Rezaei a runner-runner flush to put a tough beat on Lin, who was still left with plenty of chips.
Those at the table discussed the hand and some suspected a misclick from Lin, while Wantman thought the opponent had meant to min-raise. For his part, Lin said he really did misclick, while Oganyan said afterward he thought it was an "angle."
Wantman was eliminated a short while later, while the the other three players survived the Day 1b flight.
