Staszko Scores a Big Knockout
Level 10
: 600/1,200, 200 ante
A massive blind battle between Martin Staszko and JL left the latter empty handed after the dust settled. The board read 
and the pot was already up to over 50,000. After Staszko checked, JL shoved all in for 60,000, slightly more than a pot-sized bet.
It was a difficult decision for the 2011 WSOP Main Event runner-up, as it was for nearly all his remaining chips. After contemplating for minutes, Staszko cut out the call and put his chips in the middle with a loud thump.
The decision turned out to be right, as Staszko's 
outkicked JL's 
for a better pair of kings to send the German to the rail.
