Caputo's Hand Comes Back From the Dead

Markus Amann raised all in from under the gun for his stack of 1,250,000. James Caputo on his immediate left three-bet all in, but once Chanracy Khun folded, the dealer mucked both Khun and Caputo's cards. Scott Seiver then came to the defense of Caputo, saying "He was even protecting his cards with his hands."

Eventually the floor came over to evaluate the situation, and confirmed with Caputo and Khun their cards and suits. Once the floor talked to both players, he asked Caputo, "Are you sure that's what you had?", Caputo confirmed and his cards were returned. It folded around and Amann's and Caputo's cards were on their backs.

Markus Amann: A♦K♥ All in
James Caputo: A♥2♠

The table found it hilarious that after all that chaos, Caputo turned over ace-deuce and then went into full blown laughter after the flop came A♣7♥2♦ giving Caputo two pair. The laughs continued as a crowd swarmed the table, once the rest of the board ran out Q♦ on the turn and 8♣ on the river, to give Caputo the pot and eliminate Amann in a brutal fashion.

Chino Rheem at a nearby table said, "I wouldn't have believed it if I didn't see it!"
