"Stand-Up Trick" Works for Palacios
Level 18
: 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Brett Reichard raised to 20,000 in middle position and received a call from ClubGG Qualifier Vicki MicKee in the small blind. Robert Palacios was in the big blind and re-jammed for 69,000. Reichard announced a call, sending action back onto McKee, and she let out a sigh and thought for a bit.
"Do the old, stand-up trick," said Palacios, standing up as McKee continued to ponder her options. She let her hand go a few moments later.

Reichard: 
"I'm live!" remarked Palacios after seeing Reichard's hand. One of his two live cards hit on the flop 
and he was able to fade an ace as the turn 
and river 
completed the runout.
