Sharma Makes a Big Call

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

On the end, with the community reading {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{6-Hearts}, Ami Sharma called a bet of 6,000 from a fellow late-position player. The bettor showed {7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}, but Sharma had him beat with {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}.

Sharma, whose name tag bore the nickname "Fold Out Of Turn," said he did just that the first two hands, but his clumsiness hasn't prevented him from more than doubling his starting stack early on.
