Rafael Wolf Scores Healthy Pot Thanks to Pair of Mistakes by Nicola Spicher

Sep 6, 2023

With Didier Jin all in for his last 23,000, Nicola Spicher and Rafael Wolf both make the call, but before the flop is revealed, Spicher mistakenly reveals his cards, showing Diamond 6Spade 6. The floor rules that he will have to play the rest of his hand face up versus Wolf for any side pot.

The players would check down the Diamond JSpade KSpade 8Heart 9Spade 4 board, with Jin showing Diamond AHeart 10 for ace-high which eliminated him from the tournament.

It would be Wolf credited with the knockout as he shows Diamond 9Diamond 7 for a turned pair of nines.

“I should have bet,” bemoaned Spicher, referring to Wolf catching a better pair on the turn to take the pot away from him.

Rafael Wolf – 226,000 (75 bb)
Nicola Spicher – 80,000 (26 bb)
Didier Jin – eliminated
