Lizano Doesn't Have a Pair, Doubles Up Anyway

It folded around to Jesus Cortes Lizano in the small blind, who went all in. Georgios Skotadis thought about only briefly before calling.

Lizano: {k-Hearts}{6-Hearts}
Skotadis: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}

"Was it a tough call?" asked Lizano, clearly thinking that Skotadis' pause had been a kind of slowroll.

"You know, I don't like this situation," Skotadis told him, "If it's 50-50."

It wasn't 50-50, but sometimes the worse hand wins.

Board: {8-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{4-Spades}{10-Hearts}

"See, was that a tough call for you?" the jocular Skotadis asked Lizano as the latter doubled up with a flush; he was still maintaining that he'd thought that Lizano was pushing with a pair. "You know what, two flips in a row and you're meant to lose one. So yeah, it was a tough call."

Lizano's up to 900,000, Skotadis down to 1.3 million.
