Mundie Smacks the River to Stun an Opponent
Level 12
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Nearly 100,000 was aready in the middle as John Mundie and an opponent went to the turn on a board of 2♦A♣9♦5♣. Mundie then bet 40,000 from middle position, his opponent moved all in for 150,000, and Mundie called.
Mundie showed A♥K♥ for top pair, but his opponent had flopped two pair with A♠9♣. "King!" Mundie pleaded, and he got his wish as the K♣ fell on the river to give him the massive pot and send his opponent to the rail.
