T.J. Gets Extremely Unlucky To Chop

Aug 06, '12

T.J. Cloutier raised to 38,000 and Maxx Dansky made the call from the cutoff. Val Wood then moved all in for 180,000 on the button and Cloutier isolated all in from early position for his last 613,000.

Dansky wasn’t going anywhere, however, and called the all in with 9 9. Wood showed K Q and Cloutier was streets ahead with Q Q.

The board fell 7 6 5 3 4, however, and all three players took back their bets. Brutal.
