A Lapse in Concentration
Another quiet round for Allen Cunningham. He played few pots in the last hour, twice raising under-the-gun. The first time he took the blinds. The second time, he ran into an opponent who had a lapse in concentration.
Allen raised to 75k and a player in late position looked down at his cards and said, “Raise to 70.” He hadn’t noticed that Allen had raised before him. A floor man was called and ruled that the player in late position had to min raise Allen’s open-raise.
It was then folded back to Allen, who popped it another 200k. The player folded, giving away 140k in chips.
