After Alex Outhred's opponent raise to 2,000 preflop, Outhred asked him if he had a big pair and reraised to 18,500, enough to put his opponent all in. It turned out his opponent did have a big pair - the biggest pair of all, {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{A-Spades}

. He called the raise in a shot to find out he was up against Outhred's {8-Hearts}

{8-Hearts}

{8-Spades}

, but his edge didn't hold up when the board ran out {J-?}

{J-?}

{5-?}

{7-?}

{4-?}

{6-?}

.

Afterwards, the other players at the table chided Outhred for his play. Outhred responded, tongue firmly planted in cheek, that he gave his opponent every opportunity to fold.
