The button was all in for his last 12,300 and was at risk to Wasim Mahfooth, who called from the cutoff. During his decision time, Mahfooth was in the tank, debating whether to call or fold.
"I have snowmen, I like snowmen, I am from Michigan," said Mahfooth.
"You can fold eights," the button replied.
In the end, Mahfooth called.
Button: A♣J♦
Wasim Mahfooth: 8♦8♠
Mahfooth did indeed have pocket eights, and they held out to scoop the spot and secure the KO following the Q♠3♣6♥K♥6♣ runout.
"I'm from Michigan, I can't fold snowmen" repeated Mahfooth.

Chris Basile bet 2,500 on the turn of 2♦6♦K♠A♣, but was then check-raised to 8,000 by his opponent in the big blind.
Basile made the call and the players went to the river 2♥, which saw a check from the big blind before Basile moved all in for 22,900.
His opponent went into the tank for a good 30 seconds before he decided to let it go and tossed his cards into the muck to award the pot to Basile.
