Alex Epstein:
The turn was the and the river gave Chen two pair. Epstein let out a frustrated noise and the pot was awarded to Chen. However, before the next hand the players at the table realised that Epstein had in fact rivered a straight, with his ace doubling as the bottom end of a nine-high straight.
The floor was called and the pot was awarded in Epstein's favour sending Chen to the rail.
