Larry Wright raised to 3,000 from middle position with A
K
and Jesse McVicker moved all in with 108 for about 35,000. Wright snap-called and the dealer began to peel off the cards.
McVicker picked up a pair of tens after a 10
96 flop, but the board completed 8J for a chopped pot.
As the last card was dealt McVicker jumped out of his seat in disbelief.
“Be careful jumping up like that boy,” Wright said. “You’ll break your back.”
“I hope you break your back,” McVicker responded.
A few hands later McVicker was eliminated when he got his remaining chips in the middle with K10 against an opponent’s QQ and the board ran out 6
63J3.
