Quinlan Left Short After Exposed Card Drama
On the second to last hand of the day, Aidan Quinlan raised to 400,000 from the cutoff before facing a three-bet to 1,800,000 from Tero Laurila on the button. Quinlan went into the tank but eventually said "Go on then" and slammed in a call.
However, he instantly turned over his A?J?, but still had 1,425,000 chips behind. It was ruled that the hand would continue as normal, with Quinlan's cards left exposed.
The flop was then dealt 6?9?K? and Quinlan checked after a few minutes in the tank. Laurila then bet 300,000 and Quinlan folded his cards.
To add to his injury, Quinlan was given a three-hand penalty for exposing his cards. He will miss the first two hands of the final day of the Main Event, as the players bagged and tagged one hand later.
