A player in Seat 2 opened to 8,000 and Kevin Saul called. Millard Hale raised pot, leaving himself with a single T500 chip behind. The player in Seat 2 re-raised all in himself for 45,500 total. Kevin Saul now had a dilemma and he started talking to himself.
"I like to gamble."
"Four cards. Anything can happen."
"And if I lose we're going on dinner break in 13 minutes and I won't tilt it off."
Saul talked himself into calling and said "I have the worst of it" as the hands were revealed:
Saul:
Seat 2:
Hale:
