Wien Finds Himself in Tricky Spot
Level 14
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
A player under the gun limped for 4,000, Jeremy Wien in early position followed suit and the button moved all in for 26,000.
The original raiser didn't realize Wien's presence in the pot and snap-called, prematurely tabling K♦Q♦.
Wien now went into the tank, inadvertently receiving more information on the situation than he intended. Confirming that the under-the-gun player only had 18,000 behind, Wien moved all in and the original raiser called.
Button: K♠10♠
Under the Gun: K♦Q♦
Jeremy Wien: A♦9♦
Wien was ahead the whole way as the board ran out 2♠9♥2♣5♠9♣. His trips sent both players to the rail.
Feeling somewhat guilty about his opponent's mistake, Wien said "What am I supposed to do, pretend I didn't see his cards?".
