2002 WORLD SERIES OF POKER
The flop was Qc 4c 4s, putting Varkonyi even further ahead. Sure, Gardner had a flush draw, and I guess he thought that meant he had something. But with the board paired, Varkonyi would still have redraw outs even if Gardner made his flush.
Varkonyi made a tentative bet of only 50,000 chips. Gardner thought he had a chance to semi-bluff his flush draw and moved all in. Varkonyi called and it was all over.
The Turn was a Td, giving Varkonyi two pair, and the River gave Gardner his flush with the Tc but it filled Varkonyi up. Maybe Gardner hadn’t noticed the danger of that flop with a pair on it.
