"I don't know what you have," Josh Prager mused aloud to Pierre Neuville. Prager had raised preflop from the small blind and was called by Neuville out of the big blind. Prager check-called 31,000 on the flop and 42,000 on the turn. At the river, with the board showing , Prager had checked again. Neuville responded by waving his hands over his chips and announcing, "All in."
Prager finally talked himself into calling all in for less with , two board pair with an ace kicker. Neuville turned over . He had made a full house, treys full of deuces.
"I thought he had nothing," Prager said to Bill Reynolds after the hand. "What could he have? He can't have the flush."
"Nuts or air," Reynolds agreed. Unfortunately for Prager, it turned out to be the former.
