Over Throwing The Queen

Claudio Elizalde

Level 16 : Limits 8,000/16,000, 0 ante

Kyle Dilschneider was at his patience's end, as he had just lost a significant pot the hand prior and was left with dust on the stone bubble. Beyond agitated, he was ready to be the one who went home empty handed.

The very next hand, Dilschneider got the rest of his chips in the middle and chaos erupted, as they were hand for hand and both players attempted to reveal their cards, but action should have been paused in case any other tables might have a player at risk.

They did wait but Dilschneider couldn't help the kung fu grip he had on the cards, to the point they might be crumpled if he held them any tighter. Seemingly on accident from the literal tension, Dilschneider threw one of his cards off the table and past the ropes of the tournament area, as he was half standing in his seat.

It was easily retrievable and since they had already revealed their hands, the card was easily identified.

Kyle Dilschneider: K?Q?
Clayton Mozdzen: A?2?

It seemed doom for Dilschneider as the flop came, A?8?9?, by the time the 5? hit he was already halfway out of the tournament area, but when the 2? completed the board the table yelled him back over, as he had rivered a flush against Mozden's top pair.

Mozden did receive a warning from the floor for the airborne Q? and he was heard saying, 'I have no idea how that happened!", as obvious relief flushed through his system.
