Denise Pratt Doubles Through Chad Wiedenhoeft
Denise Pratt raises to 105,000 in the small blind, and the dealer tells her she must raise to at least 120,000. She apologizes and puts out the additional 15,000 in chips. Chad Wiedenhoeft confirms that 120,000 total, and then calls.
The flop comes . Pratt announces that she is all in, and Wiedenhoeft puts his hand on his head, and his head down on the rail while asking, "How much is it? I need a count."
The dealer counts out Pratt's 1,555,000 in chips, and tells him the count. Wiedenhoeft lifts his head up from the rail, stands up, and puts his hands in his pockets. He stares at the board for over two minutes before saying, "I think I've got you...it's just a matter if if it will hold up or not,"
"I don't think you do, but go ahead," Pratt says to Wiedenhoeft. She then says, "I really don't think you do. You would never put me on this hand."
Wiedenhoeft sits back down in his chair and counts out the chip to call, and it's Pratt's turn to stand up. She stares intensely across the table at Wiedenhoeft while he looks only at his chips and the board.
Nealry two minutes pass before Wiedenhoeft moves the chips forward to call, and stands up.
Wiedenhoeft is ahead holding for a pair of sevens against Pratt's (open-ended straight draw).
The turn is safe for Wiedenhoeft, but the river gives Pratt the eight high straight to win the hand.
Wiedenhoeft says, "She got there," while sitting down, and once again leaning over to rest his head on the rail.
"Wooooooo," Pratt screeches. She then stands up and tries to high five a few of the floor staff standing around, and the floor says, "I'm sorry but we can't." Pratt excitedly turns back to the table and shouts again, "Yes, Wooooo Hoooo," as the chips are passed over to her.
Wiedenhoeft sits motionless, still laying his head on the rail.
Denise Pratt - 3,400,000 (56 bb)
Chad Wiedenhoeft - 2,500,000 (41 bb)
