Racener's Two Pair Gets Crushed

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
John Racener
John Racener

Gaetan Cauchy raised from the hijack and John Racener called from the big blind. The flop came {7-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{3-Spades} and Racener checked to Cauchy who continued for 40,000. Racener check-raised to 85,000 and Cauchy pushed all-in for 211,000. Racener instantly called and Cauchy tabled {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}.

Racener out-flopped him with {4-Clubs}{3-Clubs} and Cauchy immediately was displeased. He pushed all of his chips forward and stood up from his chair, spewing out a few French curse words. The dealer burned and turned the {a-Spades} and Cauchy's emotions instantly reversed.

"Yes! Yes!" Cauchy was screaming as he turned a set of aces, leaving Racener drawing dead to the {q-Spades} on the river. "Why did you call me with three-four?" Cauchy asked.

"Because you put all of your chips in drawing to 5%," Racener replied with a laugh. His chip stack wasn't as funny as he was left with under 100,000 and would bust shortly after.
