Event 8: Fake All-in is Costly

$400 + $50 Deep Stack

Francis Anderson (Poughkeepsie, NY) learned that a small joke can get you into big trouble. Anderson is reraised by Marco Huijgen (New York, NY) and that's when chaos ensues.

Anderson slowly pushes his cards into the middle of the table and says, "all-in." Huijgen snap calls and there's a short debate on whether Anderson folded or is committed to the all-in bet.

The floor man rules that both hands are live and tabled:

Huijgen: A A
Anderson: 9 2

The aces hold and Anderson, who was a former big stack, gives away 175k to Huigen who doubles to 360k. Anderson is down to less than 100k.
