“Raise, all-in and a call.” Was how Tobias Wagner described it before the cards were turned over. With the cameras and reporters crowding round the table it was time to turn over the hole cards. Wagner had {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} and the at risk player was PokerStars player from the UK Stephen Chidwick who held {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}. The dealer dealt out the board {6-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{9-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}. The bad news delivered right on the flop and no king to the rescue.

The remaining players are now in the money and a disappointed Chidwick made a dignified exit.
