Bizarre Twist

Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 5,000 ante

David Battaglia shoved in for 450,000 and Chris Harker came over the top all in for almost one million.

Blake Napierala mistakenly looked down at the same card twice and it was an ace, so he called all in for around one million as well. It turned out Napierala had {a-}{8-}.

Battaglia had jacks and Harker {a-}{j-}. Ultimately, Napierala hit an eight, Battaglia tripled up and Harker was left crippled, having to pay off Napierala on the side. Somehow, Napierala's mistake didn't cost him a single chip. Charmed life.

The very next hand, Peter Bodnar ($5,000) and Harker ($5,000) ran rags into Napierala's big slick. He hit a king and they are down to six.
