Level 17
: 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Tom-Aksel Bedell opened to 17,000 from the cutoff and was called by Sean Winter on the button and Thomas Muehloecker in the small blind. Sam Greenwood three-bet to 75,000 in the big blind which only got a call from Winter.
The flop came 
and both players checked to the

on the river. Greenwood checked for the third time and Winter finally pushed in a bet of 118,000. Greenwood flicked in a chip to call and Winter showed his displeasure with the hand.
"You have ace-eight?" Winter asked as he tabled 
. Greenwood turned over 
which was virtually the same hand as ace-eight. "Fucking bullshit!" Winter reacted. "I can't believe I let you get away with that shit. I knew you had ace-eight and I still played the hand like a dumbass."
