Juanda Pats, Shouldn't Have

John Juanda made a raise from the button, and Masayoshi Tanaka called from the big blind. Each player would draw two cards to start and then check-check the betting.

On the next draw, Tanaka took two again, and again he checked. Juanda traded just one card, and he bet and was called.

Juanda patted the last round while Tanaka still wanted one card. When Juanda bet, Tanaka made one last call, turning over 8-7-6-4-2. Juanda confidently tabled a seven low.

The only problem with his seven was that it was 7-6-5-4-3. "Oh, I have a straight!" he realized. The pot was pushed over to Tanaka, and Juanda sighed and said, "I'm steaming now," with a slight smirk.

Juanda - 220,000
Tanaka - 740,000
