Both Players Pushing the All-In Button

After a lull in the proceedings in which pots were dragged with single raises, both Michael Blanovsky and Arkadiy Tsinis have realized that they're playing No-Limit Hold'em.

In the last eight hands, we have seen both players attempt min-raises when holding the button. While this move was good enough to earn the win a half hour ago, now it is being met with an all-in declaration. The min-raiser has folded in the face of pressure each time, however, and we have settled into a pattern of a different sort.
