Lounis' Final Tune

A few hands ago, Willy Korchia flopped a set of queens on an A-Q-T board. He would double up through Adam Lounis, a PokerStars sponsored player who was stuck with pocket tens and bottom set.

Just now, Korchia got the rest of Lounis' chips in sick fashion. Three players were involved in a preflop raising war, but the monkey in the middle was smart enough to duck out and let Korchia and Lounis go at it once again. With all of the chips in the middle of the table, the cards were on their backs:

Lounis: {A-Hearts} {A-Spades}
Korchia: {J-Clubs} {J-Diamonds}

The flop was a huge sweat for both men as it came out {5-Hearts} {J-Hearts} {6-Hearts}. Korchia had found his set, but he'd need to fade the two aces plus the nine remaining hearts in the deck to win the pot. The turn was a safe {7-Spades}, though, and the {Q-Spades} on the river sealed the deal. The dealer counted down both stacks and gave the unfortunate news to Lounis: "Covered."

The frustrated young man made his way slowly to the rail as his day is already over.
