Misclick by Zerjav with Kings

Erick Torres

Level 23 : Blinds 120,000/240,000, 240,000 ante

Chris Moorman opened from the button to 480,000. Jared Bleznick chose to three-bet to 1,500,000 with Q♦J♦.

Blaz Zerjav woke up with K♠K♣ in the big blind. Zerjav had 3,300,000 in his hand, but verbalized 1,300,000 as the bet; thus was bound to just a call instead of a four-bet.

The flop fanned out K♥3♣J♣, which gave Zerjav top set and Bleznick middle pair.

Bleznick fired 1,200,000 and was called by Zerjav.

Bleznick slowed down and checked the 10♠. Zerjav slid out 1,500,000 and was called by Bleznick.

Zerjav announced all in on the 3♠ river to which Bleznick folded.

Zerjav explained after the hand that he meant to raise to 3,300,000, but verbalized 1,300,000 by accident.

Blaz Zerjav opened to 400,000 in the hijack with 8♣8♦ and was called by Chris Moorman with 9♠8♠ and Jared Bleznick with K♠Q♦ in the blinds. An action flop of K♣7♠2♠ was spread across the felt and the action checked to Zerjav who bet 350,000. Moorman check-raised to 975,000 and Bleznick came over the top with a three-bet to 2,100,000.

Zerjav quickly folded but Moorman called with the flush draw. The turn was the 9♦ and both players checked to the 4♠ on the river. Moorman sized up a bet of 1,400,000 after completing his flush which sent Bleznick into the tank for a couple of minutes before he finally folded.
