Richardson's Prayers Unanswered
Level 29
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Jack Nathan under the gun open-shoved for 1,115,000 and Brian Richardson, on his left, called with his remaining 200,000. After action folded around, the two players went into showdown.
Brian Richardson: A♠8♣
Jack Nathan: 10♦10♥
Richardson started chanting, "Just one time, Just one time, please." But got on his feet ready to leave the moment the 5♦K♥9♥ flop dropped.
The dealer continued with the 2♦ turn and Q♦ river, eliminating Richardson.
