It's the Hope that Kills You as Pecelj Falls
Level 11
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Pavle Pecelj jammed from the button for 40,000, and received a reluctant call from Dimitri Copeland in the big blind.
Pavle Pecelj: A♣5♣
Dimitri Copeland: Q♠10♦
Pecelj was ahead, and the A♠ was in the window. However the dealer slightly fumbled the fan, and there was about a second while the ace lay there alone as the flop, and Pecelj must have been contemplating the double.
However it was followed by Q♦10♥, giving Copeland two pair, earning murmurs from the table.
Pecelj could not reverse the position on the 8♥ turn or 3♥ river, and saw the funny side as he gathered his things.
