Signs that you are probably beat: after one opponent raises to 12,000 and you reraise to 26,000 to put him all in, a different player in between the two of you raises all in to 56,000 AND the original raiser calls all in. That's probably a good spot to lay down {J-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

{J-Clubs}

. Avi Cohen instead chose to call, and found out he was up against {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{K-Diamonds}

and

{A-Clubs}

{A-Hearts}

. Nobody improved, so Jani Vilmunen's aces took both the main pot and the side pot, knocking out John Shipley in the process and denting Cohen's chip stack to 83,000.
