Playing with One Hole Card

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

An interesting hard unfolded in a table, where a player was on the big blind, and he thought that he got a walk, opening the {a-Spades}. The only problem was that there was already an open from early position, which he didn't see, exposing one of his cards.

He asked the dealer if he can still play, everybody in the table laughed, but the dealer gave her confirmation, so he called to see the flop.

The first three community cards were {3-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{k-Spades}, and both players checked.

The {j-Diamonds} fell on the turn, and after the big blind's check, the initial raiser bet 10,000, getting a call.

The {6-Spades} completed the board on the river, and the first player checked again, with the aggressor betting again 10,000. The player who had his {a-Spades} exposed was tanking, contemplating whether he should call or not with his ace-high, as he said. The other player, to make things even more interesting exposed the {q-Spades} from his hand.

Now both players were playing with only one hidden card in their hands! The rest of the players were giving suggestions to the big blind regarding what to do, and he was asking his opponent if ace-high is good. The reply he got was that it is not good, since he said he was holding queen-jack.

Finally, the {a-Spades} player folded, and everybody prompted the other player to show his hand, which he didn't.
