'Never Lucky'
Konstantin Voronin kicked off the hand with a raise from early position, only to face a three-bet from Benjamin Lebor, who made it 1,300 from the button. Hamza Nasir, in the small blind, wasn’t backing down and four-bet to 5,500. Voronin called, but Lebor decided there were too many players in the pot and shoved all in. Nasir followed suit, also going all in, which made Voronin fold, sending the hand to a showdown.
Benjamin Lebor: 8♥8♦
Hamza Nasir: A♦K♥
When Lebor saw the cards, he muttered, "Oh, never lucky," and stood up, even though he was still ahead.
The flop came K♠6♥3♠, giving Nasir top pair with kings. "See, never lucky," Lebor quipped, already half out the door. The A♣ on the turn and the 10♠ on the river sealed it for Nasir, sending Lebor to the rail.
