Bedell's Wishes Have No Effect
Level 12
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Tom-Aksel Bedell had raised to 30,000 on the button. Stefan Polster in the big blind then made it 100,000 to go, which Bedell called.
Polster put in the rest of his chips, 170,000, on the 4♦J♣2♠ flop and was called by Bedell.
"I wish myself good luck," Bedell said as the cards were flipped up.
Stefan Polster: J♠J♥5♥5♣ 
Tom-Aksel Bedell: K♦Q♦6♥2♥
Bedell was in abysmal shape against the top set of Polster. He made two more pairs on the 6♠K♣ runout but it was not enough as he doubled up Polster.
