Shane Douglas Rivers a Heart to Double Through Tommy Chen
There was 8,100 total in the pot preflop and Shane Douglas and Tommy Chen had both put in 15,000 on the flop.
On the turn, Douglas, who was in the small blind, bet the pot but put out too much. Chen in the big blind wanted to know what the size of the bet was, and after some discussion between dealer and multiple players, it was determined to be 38,100.
Chen was visibly annoyed with the situation and asked Douglas why he didn't just raise on the flop. Douglas shrugged his shoulders and after several more seconds, Chen put forward a stack of pink chips and Douglas called for his remaining stack. He had 62,600 total.

Chen:
Chen was ahead with a set of queens, and Douglas needed a heart for a flush, a jack for quads, or a ten to chop. The river gave Douglas a flush to double up.
The hand left Chen shaking his head in disbelief, but after several seconds, his smile returned.
