Badecker in a Bad Way

Our PokerNews field reporter was on the scene just as the cards were tabled between Andrew Badecker and an opponent after they had gotten all their money in the middle before the flop; the opponent was at risk with {K-Clubs}{Q-Hearts} but found himself flipping against Badecker's {J-Spades}{J-Hearts}.

However, the dealer spread the board of {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{5-Spades} to give the opponent the bigger two pair and the double-up, leaving Badecker with just 8,000.
