Dea Counterfeited on the River
Level 30
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Andrew Dea moved all in for 1,775,000 from under the gun, Harsheel Kothari reshoved in middle position, and the rest of the table got out of the way.
Andrew Dea: 6♥6♣
Harsheel Kothari: A♦K♠
The two opponents put their arms around each other's shoulders awaiting the 7♠8♣9♦ flop. Dea remained in front but the 7♥ turn opened the possibility of his pair being counterfeit.
The 8♦ river left Dea playing the board and Kothari's ace sent him to the rail to a round of hugs from his now-former tablemates.
"Sorry," Kothari said to him.
"No sorry. That's the way it goes," the good-natured Dea replied.
