No-Limit Hold'em
Heads-up on a flop of 8♦6♥8♠ with a sizable pot already in the middle, Yueqi Zhu bet 700 from the big blind and Tom Koral called on the button.
The J♣ fell on the turn and Zhu continued for 1,200. Koral let his hand go and Zhu said, "Dammit! How did you know?" as he tabled J♠J♥ for jacks-full.
"That's one of those hands on TV where I have zero percent next to my name," Koral replied.
