. His opponent tabled 
and stayed ahead on the 
turn and river.

The action folded around to Simon Ravnsbaek in the small blind and he decided to get funky with his lowly 
and limp in. Davidi Kitai stuck in a standard raise before Ravnsbaek moved all in on him for around 35,000 chips. Kitai snap-called for reasons that will become blatantly obvious in the next paragraph!
Kitai flipped over 
, told you it would be obvious, Ravnsbaek looked quite embarrassed with his holding, even more so because the production team began filming the hand. The dealer fanned out the made-for-TV flop of 

and the even better
turn but the
failed to improve Ravnsbaek and he exited to the sidelines.
