Boat Over Boat

Chad Holloway

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

We picked up the action with roughly 10,500 in the pot and a board reading . Chris "Big Huni" Hunichen bet 7,500 from the hijack and Mohsin Charania raised to 24,000 from the button.

Hunichen debated what to do, but claimed he didn't think there was a way for him to fold. Eventually he made the call, and Charania tabled the for fours full of sixes. Hunichen then rolled over the for fives full or fours.

"Maybe I should've shoved," Hunichen said.

"I'm not calling," was all Charania had to say.
