Parra Wins with Ace-High in Confusing Pot
Level 5
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Nicolas Chouity opened the button to 18,000 and Nino Parra called in the big blind.
On the Q?Q?9? flop, Chouity continued for 16,000 and Parra called.
The turn was the 8?. Parra decided to lead as he slid a green T-100,000 chip into the middle, saying "Six," with the intention to bet 60,000. However, it was ruled to be a minimum bet of 8,000, and Chouity called.
On the 3? river, Parra checked and Chouity, confused at the situation, reluctantly checked back. Parra revealed A?5? for a missed flush draw, however his ace-high was good enough to drag the pot as Chouity mucked.
