Mistake Costs Jelinek a Bet
Level 23
: 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Bill Kohler had four to a straight on board and bet against two opponents on sixth street after everyone checked fifth.
Kohler: /
Hal Rotholz: /
Steve Jelinek: /
Everyone called to see seventh, and Rotholz came out betting. Jelinek dropped in 80,000 without saying anything, and Kohler made it three bets. Rotholz called, and Jelinek leaned back.
"I meant to call," he said softly.
After some time, he folded what he said was a set of jacks. Rotholz showed for an eight-high straight and a low, but he only got half, as Kohler had a seven for a nine-high straight.
