Tough One for Devonshire

Shamus

Limit Hold'em

A very interesting LHE hand here at the start of Level 13 between Bryan Devonshire and Kevin Iacofano.

We caught up with this one on the flop of {8-Clubs}

. Devonshire bet, Iacofano raised, and the pair ended up raising back and forth until capping. The turn was the {2-Clubs}

, Devonshire bet, and Iacofano called.

The river was the the {10-Diamonds}

. Devonshire bet, and Iacofano said "raise." As Iacofano was counting his chips, Devonshire turned his hand over -- pocket eights -- and the dealer quickly scooped up his cards (after everyone at the table had seen what they were).

"What are you doing?" said Devonshire to the dealer. Devonshire had not heard the announcement of a raise, and had thought Iacofano had just called.

The floor was called. Ultimately it was determined Devonshire's hand was still live, and he called the raise. Iacofano turned over {9-Spades}
