Level 18 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Facing a 10,500 open, Larry Wright bumped it up to 35k only to see his opponent shove for another 140,000 - a good percentage of his own stack.

Wright tanked for a good five minutes before asking for a coin. He was handed a rusty old penny.

"If it's heads I'll call, if it's tails I'll fold," he said. It ended up heads, but the condition of the penny made it very hard to tell.

"I fold," Wright said, turning over {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs} and sending most of his tablemates into shock with the tightness of his play.
