Nicholls Correctly Folds a Monster
Level 15
: Blinds 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
The two chip leaders played a massive pot on the money bubble and Kai Nicholls got away unscathed despite having a massive holding.
On a flop of 9♣4♠2♣, Nicholls and Adam Bonilla exchanged bets with Nicholls committing around 200,000 from his stack. Bonilla then raised all in to send Nicholls deep into the tank for his remaining stack of around 900,000.
"Tough spot," said Bonilla. "I think I know what you have."
"You can't have it again!" cried Nicholls as he used five time banks with other players crowding around.
Nicholls eventually folded, leading Bonilla to flash aces. Nicholls then quickly retrieved his hand from the dealer and showed that he found the fold with pocket kings.
