Foley Finds a Deuce to Put a Bad Beat on Sanders

Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

A player raised from under the gun to 4,000, and was called by Michael Sanders in middle position. Then a player in the hijack moved all in for her remaining stack of 5,000, before Roger Foley three-bet to 31,000 on the button. The blinds and the under the gun player folded, before Sanders decided to four-bet all in, and Foley called for his stack of 56,000.
Hijack: 8?7?
Roger Foley: A?2?
Michael Sanders: A?K?
Sanders had Foley dominated in the much larger side pot, and the 4?6?6? flop and 10? turn had him in great shape to win both pots. But the 2? on the river gave Foley the best hand, eliminating the player in the hijack, and taking the main pot from Sanders.
