"I Was Hoping You Had Kings"
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.
