    <h3 id="no49241">That Was A Boo Boo</h3>
    In a battle of the blindsjust before the break, Lee Watkinson hit a set of sixes when the flop came . When the turned the other player bet and Watkinson raised. His opponent thought Watkinson had moved all-in and tabled his hand--pocket Queens. But Watkinson hadn't gone all in--he still had chips behind and the opposing player took his hand back.

    The river was the , and although everyone at the table--including Watkinson--knew what he had, the other player moved all in. Of course, there was no way he was going to win another chip--if Watkinson couldn't beat QQ he'd just fold. But if Watkinson COULD beat QQ his opponent stood to lose his stack, and that's exactly what happened. Watkinson tabled his sixes, took down a massive pot, and his dejected opponent headed out of the Amazon Room. Watkinson now has 65,000.

    it doesn't say how much this guy had behind when he moved all in. If he had virtually nothing left behind I don't see anything wrong with moving all-in here despite having tabled your hand. What are you going to do, check fold?

    Aye, if you are willing to go broke regardless after turning up your hand, might as well let the other dude try to be "cute" and push with a worse hand. Open pushing can only end badly.

    Either way, this is totally retarded =p
