It Never Happens Until it Happens
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Marco Johnson moved all in with 23,000 chips under the gun and Jesse Boettcher called from the cutoff.
Marco Johnson: K♥J♠
Jesse Boettcher: 7♣7♦
The flop of A♣7♠2♥ was so unkind to Johnson that he started packing up and stood to leave. When the Q♥ landed on the turn, giving him a straight draw, Johnson said, "It never happens."
Of course, the 10♦ came on the river, giving him a Broadway straight and the win.
"Well, it never happens, except this time."
