Counterfeited

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

Denilson Menezes opened to 7,000 from under the gun, and Sam Barnhart three-bet to 22,000 from middle position. Menezes called, and the flop fell {10-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}. Both players checked.

The turn was another ace - the {a-Hearts} - and Menezes checked again. Barnhart tossed out 20,000, and Menezes called.

The river was the {10-Hearts}, both players checked again, and the hands were tabled.

Menezes: {k-Spades}{q-Spades}
Barnhart: {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}

Barnhart 's wired pair of nines had been counterfeited, and Menezes pulled in the pot.
