Event 4: I Made A Very Bad Call

$260 +$40 No Limit Hold’em

Blinds: 300/600 Ante 75

The player in Seat  8 had moved all in over the top of two other players – it happened to be Adam “Roothlus” Levy who moved to Florida recently and is taking part in the tournament action here at The Poker Room at Seminole Hard Rock. An older gentleman in a Yankees cap in Seat 2 decided he wanted to gamble and went all in as well. The other player folded deuces face up saying “I’m folding the winner here.” Seat 2 says to Levy “Adam, I made a very bad call” and turns over AsTh. Adam shrugs and says “you can still hit an ace” and turns over TcTs. It wasn’t the ace that would win the hand for seat 2, however, as four hearts would hit the board to give him a flush. To add insult to injury, the dealer put out the meaningless case ten to give Levy a set. That pot took Seat 2 over 30K on the tournament and he went over personally to Roothlus to apologize. He smiled, shook it off, and said “if I can get everyone to keep doing that, I’ll be in good shape.”

There are 47 players remaining of the original 133.
