Propson Underestimates Akenhead's Chances

James Akenhead opened from the button preflop before small blind Randy Propson moved all in. It wasn't much; Akenhead made the call from behind with {J-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds}. Propson's {A-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} was in the lead and connected hard with a flop of {A-Spades} {K-Clubs} {3-Diamonds}.

The turn {Q-Clubs} drew some murmuring from the table. "Guys -- you know he just picked up a gutshot, right?" said Propson dismissively. Turns out that not only did Akenhead pick up the gutshot, but he hit it with a river {10-Clubs} to send Propson to the rail.
