Loh Makes a Good Fold

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

We're not entirely clear how the betting went but Paul Loh already had 16,000 invested preflop and Jarrod Lucero had shoved all in for a total of around 60,000. Action was back on Loh and he struggled with whether he wanted to call or not. "Will you show if I fold?" Loh asked to which Lucero calmly shook his head no.

Loh said that that made his decision even harder but eventually decided to give up his hand. After the chips were being pushed towards Lucero he said, "Hey, I'll show" and flashed the {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}. Loh looked absolutely relieved and expressed how glad he was that he hadn't called.

Lucero is still rocking a short stack and will still need some help fairly quickly.
