"So Much"
Level 6
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Joey Weissman opened in the cutoff to 8,000, which was called by Jeremy Becker in the small blind.
Then, big blind Michael Brinkenhoff three-bet all in for 92,000. Weissman folded, but Becker confirmed the count and eventually made the call to put Brinkenhoff at risk.
Michael Brinkenhoff: 9♥9♣
Jeremy Becker: A♦10♦
As the cards were turned over, Becker said "Classic", but after the A♥7♦J♠ flop, Brinkenhoff responded with "Not so much". Brinkenhoff was nearly out of his seat when the 2♠ hit the turn but quickly sat down after the 9♠ hit on the river, giving Brinkenhoff a set of nines and the double up.
A stunned Becker shook his head and said "so much" as he cut out his chips to pay Brinkenhoff.
