Open Your Hands, Please

"All in and a call on Table 2!"

We rushed to the table to see that Charles Furey was all in and at risk against Thomas Miller. For some reason, neither player turned their cards over, and the dealer completed the board {q-Diamonds}, {4-Hearts}.

Finally, when a tournament staff member arrived, Miller turned over {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts} for a pair of jacks. It was Furey's turn to turn his hand over, and he spiked {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts} on the felt, giving a fist pump. Furey doubled to over 180,000, while Miller is now on life support with only 47,500.

It's not been a good level for Arnaud Mattern. Just a few hands after running queens into aces, he got himself into another cooler of an all-in.
