Najer Falls Victim to a Flop Cooler

Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,500, 3,500 ante

Mike Najer and Artem Kazantsev were heads-up on a flop of {2-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{9-Spades} when Najer bet 30,000 from the big blind, then called when Kazantsev raised to 75,000.

The turn came the {k-Diamonds} and Najer moved all in for 125,000. Kazantsev snap-called with {10-Hearts}{9-Hearts} for two pair, while Najer could only show {10-Spades}{2-Diamonds} for a smaller two pair.

Najer asked the dealer for a deuce, but instead he got the {a-Diamonds} as Kazantsev took the pot and sent his opponent to the rail.
