Lai Can't Take his Bad Beat
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Action was picked up with Marco Soares and Jun Lai engaged in an all-in showdown.
Jun Lai: A♥K♠
Marco Soares: A♣8♣
Lai was ahead with his big slick and was pushed further ahead with the flop 4♦Q♣K♣ where he caught top pair. Soares was given a bit of hope with a flush draw. The turn K♦ almost cemented Lai's double up but the river 6♣ dashed his hopes as the board completed Soares' flush for the win.
Lai stood up staring at the board and the chips being pushed towards Soares shocked. He said that the flop was bad for him and that he hated being bad beat. After a while of venting his frustrations, Lai graciously left to collect his payout.
