Big O
Before plopping enough green chips down to cover Lawrence Brandt's 111,000-chip all-in, Jean Laurent said, "I have a terrible hand," as if he weren't going to make the call.
"Uh oh," two players at the table said in unison.
They were right.
Lawrence Brandt: A♣8♦6♠4♦2♠
Jean Laurent: A♥Q♣J♠J♦5♥
The runout 4♠10♣10♠8♣2♦ brought bad news for Brandt, as his pair of eights wasn't good enough to top Laurent's jacks, and his low was not low enough.
