Givens Takes Huge Hit
Level 29
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Action was picked up on the turn, in a bloated pot between button player Will Givens and big blind Hokyiu Lee.
The board read K♥10♥8♠2♣ and Lee had led out for 980,000; a pot-sized bet. Givens stuck in the call, and the river Q♦ was dealt.
Here, Lee announced "900,000," Givens snap-jammed and Lee snap-called, tabling A♣K♣J♠5♠ for the nuts.
Givens' K♦J♦9♣2♠ was no good, as he let the table know he thought Lee had announced pot, rather than 900,000.
