Well, Linni Meister might not be a poker professional but she definitely has heart and fun at the table.
With a bit more then 12k chips behind she found A♠ 9♣ in early position and decided to make it 1,500 to go (mind you, the blinds are only 200/400).
The player in cut-off called and Eran Cohen in the big blind moved all-in for 7,500 chips.
Linni didn’t take long to call the all-in and the player in the cut-off folded. Cohan turned over K♣ K♥ and Linni seemed to be genuinely surprised her ace-nine was not the best hand.
But, as it so happens in poker, you don’t always need the best hand to win. The board fell 9♥ 8♠ 6♥ 5♦ A♥ to give Linni two pair on the river.
“Sorry!”, she shrugged and raked in the pot while Cohan is out.
