Clash with Cymbals

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

Glen Cymbaluk has just doubled up in unusual circumstances. Alexander Klimashin, a Russian who speaks little English or French, had limped preflop before Cymbaluk moved all in.

The dealer asked if Klimashin wanted to call (meaning the all in) but the player thought he had asked if he had just called (limped) preflop and said, "Yes, I call."

The floor came over and ruled that the player had to call the all in.

Cymbaluk: {3-Clubs}{3-Spades}
Klimashin: {K-Clubs}{9-Clubs}

As it turned out, Cymbaluk probably didn't want a call but he survived the flip when it came {J-Spades}{6-Spades}{2-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{4-Spades} and doubled to 13,000. Klimashin has about 15,000 left.
