Hardcastle Wins Huge Pot After Samsonova Accidentally Mucks
Jack Hardcastle raised to 3,000 from middle position, Kazuomi Furuse called, Natalia Samsonova called, and the player in the big blind came along.
The flop came 8♥2♥8♠ and all four players checked. The turn was the 8♦. The big blind checked and Hardcastle bet 4,000, which both Furuse and Samsonova called.
The river came the 2♠. Harcastle led out for 8,000, Furuse called, then Samsonova raised to 25,000. Hardcastle called the raise and Furuse folded.
Samsonova then mucked her cards, thinking that both her opponents had folded. Floor was called and the decision stood that it was Hardcastle's pot.
He explained that he had a full house, though "not much better than the board". Samsonova didn't protest the decision as Hardcastle added the chips to his stack.
