Vanessa Rousso was all in holding A-J and up against Allen Bari’s A-K. The flop came down 10-7-5 and the turn was another 7, giving Rousso a flush draw. The river was a 5 and Rousso reached over to shake Bari’s hand, resigned to her fate. Bari, not realizing both players held two pair with an ace kicker, accepted her hand and began to rake in the pot. The dealer and the rest of the players at the table then informed both players that the pot was split and they both took back their bets, albeit a little red in the face. After the hand, Bari began to joke, saying, “She shook my hand, isn’t that binding?” When another opponent asked if he had ever played poker before, Bari responded dryly, “Just once a year, here in Monte Carlo.” Team PokerStars Pro Noah Boeken Hits the Rail Noah Boeken was all in for his last 17,100 holding A Not A Good Start For the Chip Leader Thiago Nishijima entered the day with the chip lead and still has it, but he is going in the wrong direction.
