No Bad Beat Jackpot? Ausmus Crushes Quad Aces With Royal Flush
The mother of all coolers took place shortly after dinner break and PokerNews was quickly called over to the table to hear the action.
Harlan Karnofsky raised to 1,600 and Jeremy Ausmus called behind him. Karnofsky bet 1,600 on the flop of K♦Q♦8♦ and Ausmus called. Both players then checked on the A♦ turn.
Karnofsky checked again on the A♠ river and Ausmus bet 9,000. Karnofsky reportedly said "cooler city" before moving all in and being met with a snap-call from Ausmus.
Karnofsky showed an immensely strong holding with A♥A♣ for quad aces, but Ausmus had the only hand that could beat him: a coveted Royal Flush with J♦10♦.
Karnofsky was sent to the rail in a fashion so horrific that Stephen King couldn't conceive it, while Ausmus now finds himself with a stack of over 100,000.
