Butuc On a Heater, Doubles Up with Pocket Kings vs. Pocket Jacks
Level 27
: Blinds 50,000/75,000, 75,000 ante
Vittorio Maugini called from early position and Ercan Hasan raised to 200,000 from the cutoff. After using a time bank card, Gheorghe Butuc shoved for 615,000 from the big blind. Following a fold from Maugini and confirmation of the amount of Butuc's shove, Hasan made the call.
Gheorghe Butuc: 
Ercan Hasan: 
Much to Hasan's dismay, Butuc was crushing him with pocket kings against his pocket jacks.
Hasan wouldn't improve on the 
runout and Hasan has gone from 245,000 chips to 1,430,000 chips in just a couple of minutes.
