Kupresanian Tries To Bluff Exposed Hand

Mike Patrick

Level 23

In a bizarre series of actions on seventh street between Peder Berge and Joseph Kupresanin, Berge mistakenly thought the action had been checked to him and he exposed his hand, when in fact Kupresanian had not yet acted.

Berge had tabled / for just a pair of eights versus Kupresanian's board which read /.

Kupresanian bet out, obviously in hopes of Berge folding his pair, but when Berge called, Kupresanian frustratedly tossed his cards into the muck, awarding the pot to Berge.
