WATCH: Doyle Brunson Suffers Terrible Bad Beat With Pocket Aces On High Stakes PokerRunning It Twice As Huge Favorite Didn't Help Brunson Avoid The Suck Out |
|
Poker Hall of Famer Doyle Brunson took a pretty terrible beat with pocket aces in a pot worth $279,000 in a recent episode of High Stakes Poker.
Obviously, a player who has been in the game for decades like Brunson has seen this kind of beat before, but the reaction on his face shows that you never quite get used to a brutal turn and river runout like this one.
A clip of the rebooted cash game show from the poker streaming service PokerGO shows that Brunson had pocket aces in the $800 straddle and three-bet to $10,800. The bet didn’t scare anyone away, and four players saw the flop.
Doyle Brunson: A
A
Jennifer Tilly: 2
2
‘Krish’ Menon: Q
J
Garrett Adelstein: 6 6
The flop fell K Q 3 with more than $44,000 in the pot. It was relatively safe for Brunson. He was first to act and overbet the pot for $50,000.
Tilly folded to Menon. The Los Angeles entrepreneur, sitting with just middle pair, moved all in for another $117,000 without much thought. Adelstein got out of the way, and Brunson didn’t think twice before making the easy call.
After revealing their cards, the two players elected to run it twice, which only makes the bad beat worse.
