"I Was Hoping You Had Kings"

Barry Russell

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

There were roughly 15,000 chips in the pot on 8♣8♦3♣.

Ted Karidis in the big blind checked to Edward Connell in middle position and he decided to take a free card.

The 2♦ on the turn saw Connell bet 5,100 and Karidis called. The 9♥ on the river saw Karidis lead for 8,000 and he got a quick fold from Connell.

Karidis then said "I was hoping you had Kings" as he mucked his hand.
