Farhad Jamasi was playing from the small blind and up against the big blind of Simon Burns.

Burns had a bet in front of him and saw Jamasi move all in for 100,000.

Burns went into the tank and sat contemplating his decision for close to a minute before he folded.

"I got it," said Jamasi, before he revealed {8-Hearts}{3-Clubs}.

Burns smiled as did the rest of the players at the table.

"I thought I was playing Blackjack" joked Jamasi and he added the chips from the pot to his stack.
