Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Anatoly Zharnitsky raised the button to 25,000, Laurent Polito moved all-in in the small blind for roughly 158,000, Michael Whitton was in the big blind and called off his remaining 68,000. Zharnitsky took his time before letting his hand go.

Laurent Polito: {a-Hearts}{2-Clubs}
Michael Whitton: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

Whitton was the favorite and the board changed nothing as it ran out {8-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{4-Spades}{q-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}, giving Whitton the double up.
