Crain Shoves with the Old 7-2 Offsuit

Eric Crain

Action folded to Edward Pham in the small blind and he opened for a raise, though we're not sure of the amount. Eric Crain was in the big blind and pushed back with a three-bet to 345,000. Not to be outdone, Pham made it 810,000 to go. Both players were fairly deep, so it caught the attention of the entire tournament floor when Crain moved all in for about 3,000,000.

With action back on Pham, he counted down his stack, knowing a call would cost the vast majority of his chips. After what seemed like an eternity, Pham laid down his hand only to have Crain proudly reveal {7-}{2-} offsuit, showing he is not afraid to put it in with the worst hand in poker.

Needless to say, the room was awestruck and impressed by the move. Crain is here to play.
