There's No Justice in this Game

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

On a flop of {Q-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{3-Hearts}, Darryl Ronconi was facing an all in bet of 370,000 by Jack Amyx. After thinking it over for a minute, Ronconi opted to call with {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} for ace-king high, and his read was dead on as Amyx tabled {A-Hearts}{J-Spades} for ace-high with a lower kicker.

The turn was the {10-Hearts}, giving Amyx the nut flush draw, and Ronconi already anticipated the worst.

"Don't do it to me," he said under his breath.

The dealer rolled over the {J-Hearts} on the river, giving Amyx a higher flush and a pot worth close to a million. Ronconi jumped out of his seat, smacked a chip cart with his hand and took a brief walk away from the table.

"There's no justice in this game," said one of the players at the table.
