"Misclick" Costs Devereux
Tyler Brown raised under the gun to 1,200,000 and Gareth Devereux called in the hijack. Both players went to a board of 3♠7♦7♥. Brown continued for 900,000 and Devereux called.
The turn brought the 9♠ and Brown fired again, this time for 2,200,000. Devereux slid out a little over two stacks of lavenders amounting to 4,200,000, an illegal under-raise. It was ruled that the bet must be that of a minimum raise so Devereux put in an extra 200,000 to make up the difference. The action back on Brown, he went into the tank for a short while before he three-bet jammed on Devereux.
Devereux, frustrated at himself, admitted the flop raise was a "misclick" implying it was intended to just be a call for 2,200,000. Devereux's mistake not only cost him seeing a cheaper turn, but ultimately the pot as he laid the hand down.
