Karlic Wins With Two "Bad Cards"
Level 7
: 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Petr Targa raised to 55,000 and Gerald Karlic three-bet to 145,000 from two seats over. A short stack in the big blind moved all in for 460,000 and Targa folded, while Karlic started some table chat. He then pointed on both of his cards and said "bad card, bad card." His opponent claimed to have good cards, to which Karlic replied "I believe you, the question is just if it's the same cards or not." One minute passed and Karlic tossed in calling chips, the showdown that followed created quite some smiles all around the table.
Big blind: 
Gerald Karlic: 
The 
flop seemingly sealed the double for the short stack, but the 
turn and the 
river gave Karlic two pair to score the knockout.
