Better to Be Lucky Than Good
Level 13
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
After a preflop betting war, Baljinder Bhupal and Adam Curchack got all of the chips into the middle, with Bhupal at risk.
Baljinder Bhupal: K?K?
Adam Curchack: Q?Q?
Although Bhupal had the best of it going into this battle, the flop of Q?3?2? was not his friend as it immediately gave Curchack the advantage with top set of queens.
Bhupal failed to improve on the 5?J? runout and he was eliminated while Curchack scooped the big pot.
"Gotta get lucky in this game," someone commented, to which Curchack nodded enthusiastically.
