Hensley Gets Counterfeited, Still Good

Kirk Brown

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

On a heads-up turn board of 8♠2♥7♦Q♠, Patrick Hensley checked to his opponent who then bet 2,800 into the pot of around 5,000.

Hensley then put in a check-raise to 8,000 and his opponent made the call to see the 7♣ appear on the river.

"I got counterfeited," Hensley sighed after both players checked and showed Q♦2♦ for two pair, queens and sevens.

This was evidently still good as his opponent promptly mucked his hand and the pot was awarded to Hensley.
