Hardcastle Nearly Celebrates Prematurely
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Jack Hardcastle moved all in for 34,000 from the small blind and Ali Abdulzahra put him at risk on the button.
Jack Hardcastle: 10♦10♥ 
Ali Abdulzahra: K♦J♥
The flop came 10♠5♠2♣ to give Hardcastle top set, and he already began taking back his chips in anticipation of his double up. "Queen," Abdulzahra pleaded, and he got his wish as the Q♥ fell on the turn.
Hardcastle put his chips back in the middle and awaited the river, which was a harmless 6♣ as he finally celebrated his double up.
