Baker Doubles Through Pulford

Ray Pulford raised it up to 46,000, and Patricia Baker moved all in for 141,000 on top. Action folded around to Pulford, who went deep into the tank. After about 20 seconds of thinking, Baker began goading Pulford. She said, "I want you to call. I know you want to call go ahead I have the best hand." Pulford thought for about 90 more seconds, with Baker chiming in with similar sentiments every 20 seconds or so. Finally, Pulford tossed in the call.

Baker: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}
Pulford: {10-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}

Pulford caught a piece of the flop, but so did Baker, as it came out {a-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}. Pulford would need to find another pair to secure the knockout, but the turn, the {5-Clubs}, didn't help. The river gave Baker unnecessary trips, coming the {a-Spades}, and Baker doubled up to around 400,000, while Pulford dropped to 550,000.
