Nik Airball Receives a Double
Level 13
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Nikhil "Nik Airball" Arcot raised the pot off a short stack of 315,000 and then called all in when Sam Soverel reraised.
Nikhil Arcot: K♣Q♦J♦3♣
Sam Soverel: A♠K♦Q♣3♥
"Wait, is that a Badugi?" Arcot asked and several players at the table nodded. The board ran out J♥J♣2♣6♣6♦ and Arcot doubled with a flush.
"I liked your hand better than mine," he joked and then added, "it's okay, you will get all later."
Moments later, Arcot was leaping back with his chair and fell over entirely to the ground - the video footage may have also been recorded by some spectators on the rail.
