Niste Was Calling a Shove
Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Hassan Nashar made it 21,000 to go from early position with Mihai Niste calling from the small blind. Yuxi Huang squeezed to roughly 125,000 from the big blind, which both Nashar and Niste called.
Niste and Huang checked the 7♥10♣9♠ flop, and Nashar bet 75,000. Niste called, and Huang also stuck in the call.
Three checks followed the J♦ turn to see the 5♠ appear on the river. Niste and Huang checked for the last time, and Nashar went into the tank. After thinking for a while, Nashar checked behind. Niste turned over 10♠10♦ for a flopped set of tens to win the pot.
Nashar asked Niste, "You call all-in on the river?", Nitse nodded his head to indicate yes.
