Tumboli Misreads Hand
Zarvan Tumboli raised to 250,000 on the button, and Joshua Ladines made the call from the small blind. The 10♣9♣4♠ flop checked through, bringing in the K♣ on the turn. Ladines checked again, but Tumboli decided to bet this time, choosing 350,000 as his sizing. Ladines put in the call, and the 6♠ peeled off on the river. Action checked through again.
"Two pair," announced Ladines. Despite being the last aggressor, Tumboli leaned over in an attempt to see said two pair, and Ladines tabled A♠J♣10♥9♥. Tumboli then picked up his cards, and went back and forth between examining them and the board for around twenty seconds. Eventually, he realised he had the worst of it. "I thought I had king-four, for two pair better," he said, as he mucked his cards.
