"You Can Never Be Too Careful"

Level 31 : 60,000/120,000, 20,000 ante

Pasi Sormunen opened for 250,000 from the cutoff only to have Tom Middleton three-bet to 700,000 from the button. The blinds folded, Sormunen called and then both players checked it down as the board ran out {7-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{a-Spades}.

Sormunen confidently tabled the {q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} for two pair, but it was no good as Middleton revealed {k-}{q-} for the same two pair with a better kicker.

"You can never be too careful," Middleton explained as to why he didn't bet.
