A No-Show Showdown

[user75032]

We caught the action on the river in a big pot between John MacNaughton and Craig Bergeron. There were roughly 17,000 chips in the pot with the board showing {J-Hearts}

. MacNaughton was first to act and checked to Bergeron, who moved all in. MacNaughton made the call for less, a total of 5,025.

"Do you have ace-queen?" Bergeron asked.

"Yes," MacNaughton replied. Incredibly, without waiting to see MacNaughton's cards, Bergeron shipped his own hand into the muck. MacNaughton never did open his hand, surrendering his cards face down as he collected a pot worth 27,000 chips. Bergeron remains in the tournament with about 6,500.
