"You Have to Gamble to Win This Tournament"

Viacheslav Zhukov opened for 17,000 and was met with a three-bet to 63,000 from Loren Klein on the button. Zhukov responded by moving all in for 179,000 total, and Klein said, "You have to gamble to win this tournament," before making the call.

Showdown

Zhukov{A-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{K-Spades}
Klein{4-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{5-Hearts}

The board ran out {Q-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{9-Spades}{Q-Spades}{6-Diamonds} and Klein no doubt wished he had waited to gamble in a different spot as Zhukov doubled on the hand.
