Foley Finds a Deuce to Put a Bad Beat on Sanders
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
A player raised from under the gun to 4,000, and was called by Michael Sanders in middle position. Then a player in the hijack moved all in for her remaining stack of 5,000, before Roger Foley three-bet to 31,000 on the button. The blinds and the under the gun player folded, before Sanders decided to four-bet all in, and Foley called for his stack of 56,000.
Hijack: 8♣7♠ 
Roger Foley: A♦2♥
Michael Sanders: A♠K♥
Sanders had Foley dominated in the much larger side pot, and the 4♥6♠6♦ flop and 10♣ turn had him in great shape to win both pots. But the 2♠ on the river gave Foley the best hand, eliminating the player in the hijack, and taking the main pot from Sanders.
