Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 200 ante

Vyacheslav Goryachev has tripled up in a very dramatic all-in-preflop coup, which also saw the end of Lars Sørensen. It started with a raise by comparative chip monster Joacim Ando - to 4,000. Goryachev, next to him on the button, saw an open spot for a shove and did just that - for 22,000 total. The small blind gave it a long think before passing, and the big blind Sørensen asked the dealer for a count.

Having made Goryachev sweat long enough, Sørensen moved in too (for just under 40k). The decision was back to Ando, and he thought for a while as the agitated Sørensen got up from the table, leaned his empty chair on the edge and wound his ipod phones up. He couldn't wait any more and called the clock.

Ando made the call (not that it really dented his 260,000+ stack) and showed {7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}. Goryachev showed the underpair {5-Hearts}{5-Clubs} and Sørensen the {A-Hearts}{K-Spades}.

I don't speak Danish but I understand "King or Ace on the flop!" in most languages. Sørensen asked for it, but instead Goryachev got the divine intervention - the flop came {5-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{8-Diamonds} and the turn and river were the irrelevant {Q-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}!

I am familiar, however, with the gamut of one-syllable English expletives, and Sørensen emitted a choice one as he left, giving the chair a bit of a smack for good measure.
