Can I Just Fold Now?

Todd Boghosian opened to 500 and found two callers to his immediate left. It was folded to Ronnie Bardah in the big blind who raised to 2,900. Boghosian thought for a moment and put in another raise to 5,500.

"What did you start the hand with Todd," Bardah asked his friend. "20?"

"17 maybe," answered Boghosian.

Bardah pushing his fist up against his chin, seeming a bit perplexed. "All in," he said after about 30 seconds. Boghosian instantly called and before he even turned his cards over Bardah said "I wanted to fold." He knew what Boghosian was about to turn over... {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}. Bardah tabled his own big pair, {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}. "I swear I wanted to fold. I almost just turned it over and said here take it."

Bardah shook his head, looked at the dealer, and joked "can I just fold now?"

"It's not over yet," said Boghosian.

"Naw, I'm not going to lay a beat on you," responded Bardah.

And he wouldn't, as the board would run out {J-Spades}{7-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{8-Spades} to give Boghosian the double up. "God, whatever," muttered a slightly frustrated Bardah.
