Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Mary Sturges raised it 25,000 from middle position, and action folded around to Matthew Mueller in the big blind.

He shoved all in and was called by Sturges.

Mueller asked if Sturges had a pair.

When she answered, "Yes," he then asked, "How big?" and the players tabled their hands.

Mueller saw that not only did Sturges have an overpair, but their pairs had the exact same suits.

Sturges: {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}
Mueller: {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}

The board runout of {k-Spades}{q-Clubs}{7-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} offered no help to Mueller, and he was eliminated from the tournament.
