Reichenstein Reluctantly Calls

Level 13 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Halil Baybars raised to 8,000 from early position before Uri Reichenstein three-bet to 25,000. In the small blind, Erdal Gulseven shoved all in for his last 106,000.

Baybars quickly folded, but Reichenstein went into the tank for about a minute. He eventually gave a shrug and put in the chips to call.

Erdel Gulseven: {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}
Uri Reichenstein: {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

Reichenstein came out on the wrong side of the race situation when the board ran out {2-Spades}{4-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{6-Spades} as Gulseven's jacks stayed in front and kept him in the tournament.
