Witness the Sickness - Royal Flush Beats Quads
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
With 8,000 in the middle with the board reading A♠A♥J♥ on the flop, the under-the-gun player, only playing their second hand of the tournament, bet 6,000 and was met with a raise of 13,000 from Kenneth Douglas on the button. The under-the-gun player snap-called.
Under-The-Gun: A♣10♣
Kenneth Douglas: K♥Q♥
The under-the-gun player flopped trip aces, but unbelievably Douglas hit their gutshot royal flush draw on the 10♥ turn. The river brought the case A♦ to give under-the-gun quad aces and they believed that they won the hand until it was pointed out by the table that Douglas had the best hand in poker.
