Charette Makes a Misread, Busts Before Break

Level 2 : 75/150, 0 ante
Simon Charette
Simon Charette

Simon Charette was in the small blind with a pot of 5,650 built up preflop between he and Osvaldo Lewis, who occupied the cutoff. After Lewis called over the floorperson to verify something in Spanish, he moved all in for approximately 30,000 when Charette checked the {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{3-Clubs} flop. The Canadian seemed pained and thought a couple of minutes until just before the break began, then he called off his stack.

"I'm just drawing," he said, turning over {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}.

Lewis tabled {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}.

"Wow, totally misread him," Charette said.

The turn and river were bricks: {2-Diamonds} and {q-Spades}. Charette's stack was just under the 31,000 held by Lewis, and he headed for the exits.

Players are on break for 20 minutes.
