Hanson Goes For a Trap
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
A player under the gun moved all in for 15,000 and Becky Hanson called in early position. Action went on Clayton McAllister in middle position. "Where's Jerry?" he asked as he took a minute before folding. Merle Bierschenk, though, called in the cutoff.
Hanson and Bierschenk checked to the river on a board of K♦J♥6♠3♣10♠, when Hanson went to reach for chips. Bierschenk didn't even wait for her to put them in the middle before folding.
The all-in player tossed A♥9♣ into the middle of the table, while Hanson showed K♣K♠ for top set to win the pot and score the knockout. McAllister then admitted he folded two tens.
