"Higher!"
Level 2
: 50/100, 0 ante
Bartel Kars, who won one of the events at the Master Classics of Poker in Amsterdam last year, was just involved in ahand with an interesting outcome.
After the river, he showed his 
to his opponent. His opponent, who turned out to be his neighbor, said the Dutch equivalent of "Higher".
Kars mucked, thinking his opponent meant that he had a higher hand than just a pair of fives. It turned out, though, Kars' opponent had just 
for a pair of threes.
Since Kars had mucked, the brush was called over. But, it turned out there wasn't much of an issue since Kars' opponent didn't even want the pot, having seen that he was beat. So as quick as the brushes came, so quick were they gone again as the dealer pushed the small pot to Kars.
