Jahn Calls His Own Counterfeit Card

Josh Noy

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Soenke Jahn's open from the cutoff was called by Mohamed Kerkeni in the small blind. Sho Homma then moved all in from the big blind and Jahn also moved his stack into the middle. Kerkeni called and the hands were turned up.

Sho Homma: A?K?
Mohamed Kerkeni: A?J?
Soenke Jahn: K?K?

Jahn was looking to dodge an ace and stayed ahead on the monotone 5?6?7? flop. Holding the only diamond, Jahn then improved to a flush on the 3? turn, but an unlikely chop was still in play.

"Four of diamonds" said Jahn, calling for a card that would chop the pot. The dealer complied by turning over the 4?, leaving a straight flush on the board.

The table reacted in amazement, as all three players improbably collected their share of the pot.
