Vieira Left With Single 1K Chip
Joao Vieira raised to 60,000 of his 61,000 stack, Michael McKenna called two seats over and Timothy Flanders called from the blinds. The flop was and Flanders checked. Vieira, not all in yet, shrugged and checked, as did McKenna.
On the turn, Flanders let out a chuckle. "One thousand?" he asked, but logically, the minimum bet was still 20,000. Flanders then tossed in the 20,000 and Vieira went deep into the tank. He shifted himself upright in his seat, studied the board intensely and tried to figure it out if he had a chance to win it.
"My hand is really bad," he said with a wry smile.
After more than two minutes, he settled on a fold and accidentally exposed . McKenna, however, instantly jumped on the opportunity that had presented itself and snap pot-raised the bet of Flanders. The Brit open-folded and Vieira had to continue with just a single 1K chip.
