Hands Accidentally Announced in Big Pot

A huge pot took place on Table 1, however it was marred with some confusion.

Julien Duveau began with a raise from under the gun before Cecile Ticherfatine put in a three-bet from the small blind. Duveau reraised to 2,300,000, leaving 175,000. Ticherfatine called as the bigger stack and announced she had kings, not knowing that Duveau still had chips behind. He also revealed he had ace-king.

On the A♠2♠2♦ flop, both players checked after each player had the clock called on them as they were waiting for the pay jump. The remainder of the chips went in on the 5♣ turn and the hands finally went on their backs.

Duveau was ahead with A♦K♠. Ticherfatine had one out with her K♦K♣ but failed to improve to a set on the Q♠ river.
