Level 9
: 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
A player opened to 3,000 from UTG, and Joe "Stapes" Stapleton folded what he later told us was "ace-ten with one diamond" next to act. Jeff Trettenero called in the hijack, as did the cutoff, button and big blind.
The big blind checked a 
flop to the UTG player, who bet 6,000. Trettenero jammed for 50,900, sending the button into the tank. After a few minutes, he folded, as did the rest of the field. Trettenero showed 
for the nuts.
The button said he folded two pair, prompting Stapleton to say, "You folded two pair? Good fold!"
