Nothing Personal

Paul Kobel was thinking about calling a 7,400 all-in bet when the player whose chips were already in the middle said, "You're torturing me, man!"

Kobel politely said, "I wouldn't do that, I'm just thinking." Kobel finally made the call, his {A-Spades} {10-Spades} led his opponent's {K-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds}, and he ended up winning the pot. He now sits with 51,000.
