He Said What?

A short-stacked player in late position said "All-in" and started pushing his chips into the middle. Started to. Before he did the player in the small blind said "Call". Unfortunately, he didn't hear the all-in. And learned to his dismay that his verbal declaration was binding and he was on the hook for 28,000.

Making matters worse was that his {J-Spades}

{J-Spades}

{8-Spades}

was dominated by his opponent's {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{J-Hearts}

. Making matters better was the {6-Spades}

{6-Spades}

{9-Spades}

{10-Diamonds}

flop, which gave him both a straight and flush draw. But the {10-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

and

{4-Clubs}

on the turn and river didn't help and his moment of inattention cost him a tidy chunk of his stack.
