Katz Exposes Hand Early & Flops the Nuts
Level 17
: 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Stephen Chidwick raised to 520,000 in the small blind and Cary Katz announced "call" before tabling Q♣Q♦.
Katz still had 150,000 behind and went to the flop with his hand exposed. The flop absolutely smacked him as it landed 4♠Q♥J♦ to give him top set. Chidwick checked and Katz moved all in, giving Chidwick a trivial fold despite the excellent price.
"I just cost myself 150,000," said Katz before repeating his mantra about it being a "flesh wound" for Chidwick.
"I could've gotten there," Chidwick replied.
