"Well, That Sucked"

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

In a four-bet pot where the four-bettor back-raised after calling the original raise, three players, including Ryan Stevenson and Luke Graham, saw a flop of {3-Spades}{3-Hearts}{2-Clubs}. Stevenson checked, Graham fired out 3,400, a player on the button called, and Stevenson check-raised to 9,125. Only Graham called.

The turn was the {a-Clubs}, the pair knuckled, and the {4-Hearts} completed the board. Stevenson led out for what looked like 6,100, and Graham moved all in for effectively 12,100. Stevenson nearly doubled over in pain when Graham pushed his stacks forward, and began questioning the most recent Main Event champion. Graham remained silent, not giving anything away at all.

Finally, Stevenson folded {2-Spades}{2-Diamonds} face up, and Graham tossed his cards into the muck.

"Well," Stevenson said a few minutes later. "That sucked."
