A Dramatic Time For Hamrick

Thai Tran opened with a raise to 4,200 from early position, and once it had folded round to Dean Hamrick in the small blind, he made it 12,400 total.

Tran, looking visibly distressed, looked up from under his hoodie and asked for a count. Hamrick pulled his hands back so as Tran could have a good look before covering his stack back.

Tran sank back under his hood for a futher two minutes before pushing all in. Hamrick called and tabled {A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds} only to be matched by Tran's {A-Clubs}{K-Spades}.

"All that drama for nothing" commented Hamrick as he saw the board run out {5-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{7-Spades}{5-Spades} to see both players chop the pot up.
