David Moses raised to 3,500 from early position. The player in middle position flatted the raise, but when Takao Shimizu three-bet to 11,000, things escalated quickly. After Moses four-bet to 38,000, the middle position player then five-bet shoved, Shimizu called all in for less and Moses made the call, having both players covered.
The players tabled their hands and several smartphones came out to take pictures.
