A Squeeze?

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

Justin Barnum was in the small blind and with action folding around to him he raised to 1,700. Becky Makar was in the big blind and moved all in, having Barnum covered.

Barnum sat silently for a few moments, then leaned forward and asked, "Do you know what I started the hand with?"

Makar nodded but offered no other comment. After a few more moments in the tank Barnum announced call and tabled {A-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} . Makar turned over {Q-Spades} {7-Diamonds}.

The board ran {6-Diamonds} {A-Spades} {J-Clubs} {3-Clubs} {6-Spades}, and Barnum's two pair was good.

"Sorry about that, I moved in just out of reaction. I didn't really mean to, but I couldn't take it back," Makar said.
