Katz Scoops; Song Mistakenly Mucks

Stud Hi-Lo

On seventh street in a three-way pot between Kevin Song, Cary Katz, and Calvin Anderson, Katz was first to act and checked to Anderson, who bet. Song and Katz both called and the trio went to showdown.

Katz showed // for two pairs, jacks and sevens, which was good for the high half of the pot.

Anderson mucked, and Song held his three hole cards in his hand along with on the table. Song then turned his hole cards over and the dealer pulled his hand into the muck and awarded the full pot to Katz.

Song didn't realize until after his hand had been killed and the pot pushed to Katz, that he had a low hand that would have claimed half the pot.

A floorperson was called to the table, and Song asked to use the security cameras to verify his claim. The floorperson explained to Song that since his hole cards were never actually tabled, and he turned them over himself, that a review would not be possible.

Katz benefitted hugely from Song's mistake and is now over 200,000 in chips.
