Shaver Gets Unlucky

Level 2 : 100/200, 0 ante

Six players limped in to see a {7-Spades}{a-Clubs}{2-Spades} flop together, and action checked to the {q-Clubs} turn. Peter Nigh bet 700 from the small blind, and Donald Shaver called in the hijack. The dealer burned and turned the {2-Clubs} before the button had a chance to act, and the floor ruled that the {2-Clubs} would go back in the deck and a new river would be produced after the button acted. The button eventually folded.

The {k-Hearts} now fell on the river, and Nigh bet 1,500. Shaver called, and Nigh tabled {q-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}, for a two-pair that would've ben counterfeited on the original river.

"I would've preferred that two," Shaver said with a rueful smile, "I would've won."
