"Man, I Can't Find the Fold Button," Says Landgraf Before Eliminating Shing

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Alberto Okuda Landgraf

Philip Shing raised to 2,000 from early position and Alberto Landgraf announced his reraise to 11,000. Action folded back around to Shing, who made the call for a decent chunk of his stack.

The flop came {q-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{7-Clubs}. Shing took less than a second to shove the flop for the rest of his chips, around 30,000. Landgraf moved his time bank cards into the middle as he thought about his decision.

"Man, I can't find the fold button," he said. And indeed he couldn't, eventually making the call. It was the right call to make though. Shing showed {8-Spades}{8-Clubs} and Landgraf showed {j-Spades}{j-Hearts} for a higher pocket pair.

The turn came the {j-Clubs} to give Landgraf a set. This also brought Shing a little hope in the form of a flush draw, but it wasn't to be. The river came {7-Spades} and Landgraf held to eliminate Shing from the tournament.

Landgraf got up and shook his opponent's hand before Shing left the table.
