Traboulsi in Trouble

Level 23 : 12,000/24,000, 2,000 ante

Fabrice Soulier raised preflop to 52,000. It folded to small blind (and permanent ipad book-reader) Thomas Traboulsi in the big blind. So short his stack was hard to see (104,000 total, with 25,000 in the blind) he had a chat to himself before making a decision.

"Pocket two? If you have no pocket I will do it."

The rail assumed he meant get his last four big blinds in - but no, he flat called, moving all in on the {4-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}. Soulier instacalled with {A-Hearts}{5-Spades} and Traboulsi showed {10-Clubs}{8-Clubs}. He was just starting to launch into a, "How can you call" type lecture when he spiked the {8-Diamonds} on the turn, slapped the table and held on the {9-Diamonds} river.
