Medjahed Goes Runner-Runner to Eliminate Michelet
Level 10
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Abdelkader Medjahed opened from under the gun and Nelson Michelet three-bet jammed a stack of 17,000 from the small blind. Medjahed called with a bigger stack.
Nelson Michelet: 10♥8♣
Abdelkader Medjahed: 3♦3♠
Michelet stood up from his seat anticipating a bustout, but sat back down when the dealer fanned the flop of 7♣J♦9♥ to give him the nut straight and have Medjahed drawing to just a runner-runner full house or quads.
That's exactly what happened as the dealer first put down the 3♥ on the turn and then the J♠ on the river to send Michelet to the rail in an unbelievable fashion. A look at a poker odds calculator shows that Medjahed was less than 3% to win the hand once the flop came down.
