Will Carrion Goes All In Blind
Apr 12, '15
Action folded to Will Carrion on the button, and being down to his last 28,000 he decided to act.
“I’m not even going to look,” Carrion said as he slid his stack forward.
Marcus Kwan folded from the small blind and everyone looked at Larry Wright in the big blind.
“I’ve got the worst hand in poker,” Wright said. “How much is that?”
The dealer counted out Carrion’s stack and Wright called.
“Can I turn these over one at a time,” Carrion said as he flipped over the 7. He then turned over the A as Wright flipped over the 82.
The board was dealt Q43A7 and Carrion doubled up.
Wright then told his table that contrary to common believe, eight-deuce is a worse hand than seven-deuce.
