Soverel Unmucks his Cards
Level 14
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Action was picked up on the river, with Sam Soverel protesting that he had won the pot. The board read K♥J♠Q♣6♥5♣ and Chang Lee had A♣K♠ in front of him, as well as the pot that he had been awarded.
Soverel announced that he had king-queen, good for two pair, and that his cards had been incorrectly mucked. As the floor was on their way over, he pulled K♣Q♠ out of the muck, before explaining the situation. Lee claimed that due to having been awarded the pot, as well as the fact that his opponent's cards were mucked, he should have the pot.
Due to the all in nature of the pot, and the fact that Soverel's cards had already been face-up, it was decided that it would be him to drag in the pot. Lee left the table promptly.
