Flatt Falls Flat
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Both of Simon Brocklehurst and Jan-Thore Flatt had put in 15,000 preflop from under the gun and the button respectively.
The A♥J♥7♠ flop was checked through to the 8♦ turn, where Brocklehurst fired out a bet of 20,000, receiving a snap-call from Flatt.
The J♣ river paired the board, and Brocklehurst checked to his opponent. Flatt moved all-in, and after some thought, Brocklehurst made the call.
"Show me the ace" said Flatt. "I don't have one", Brocklehurst responded as he turned over Q♣Q♠. Queens and jacks was good enough versus Flatt's 7♥5♥ for two pair, jacks and fives.
