Level 3
: Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
On a completed A♠5♦6♥5♠Q♥ board, Gunnar Lie bet 3,500 into a pot of 14,000 from the small blind. David Battersby called in middle position, forcing Vegard Granli to fold in the cutoff.
"I have a house," Lie started to declare, but he quickly let out a disgusted groan and tabled 8♥6♣ for just a pair of sixes.
Lie had misread his hand, meaning Battersby was free to pick up the pot with A♦6♦ for two pair.
