Ah-Nien Bounces Back Amid Controversy
Level 22
: 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
KM raised and was called by Patrice Ah-Nien defended in the small blind. On the J♠4♠4♥ flop, Ah-Nien check-called for 110,000 and the J♦ followed on the turn. Ah-Nien knuckled the table and KM asked him "did you check?"
The dealer understood that both players had checked and burned to produce the 6♥ on the river. Ah-Nien bet 110,000 but KM asked for the floor as the situation became more confusing.
The players explained the situation and floor staff checked the cameras. The river card was shuffled back into the deck and the new 2♣ river appeared. Ah-Nien bet 200,000 and KM folded to get shown 6♠6♦.
"I was never gonna put in any chips," KM replied and exposed his 5♦5♥.
