The sickest run-it-twice cooler ever?
A $400,000 pot took place yesterday in the Bahamas which needs to be seen to be believed.
We have seen some insane statistically unlikely hands so far in 2019 but this may the biggest one from the No Limit tables.
At the MILLIONS World festival in the Bahamas a private cash game featuring Rob Yong and Sam Trickett produced this hand:
Don’t normally post hands from High Stakes Cash Games but this is why you gotta keep the faith - here is $400K pot @partypoker_CPP , all in on Q99 flop Q9 v TsJs, run it twice - 🙈 pic.twitter.com/zq2MDrMmP5

In case you are squinting at your screen, that is a full house facing an open-ended straight flush draw which gets there not once, but twice, when they run it twice. One time completing the low end of the straight flush, the other completing the high end.
All for the small matter of $400,000, which is pretty standard in the games that Yong and Trickett frequent.
Of course it is not the first time that running it twice (or more) has led to some crazy outcomes, there was this hilarious hand between Phil Hellmuth and the 'Loose Cannon' where they ran it four times, not to mention perhaps the most famous example when Patrik Antonius and Andrew Robl ran it four times in a high stakes PLO game.
But when it's two straight flushes for the same person in the same hand, it's always worth a mention.
