Getzen Falls Slowly With Kings
Level 22
: 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Nicholas Getzen opened to 75,000 from middle position and action folded around to Xixiang Luo in the big blind who announced he was all in.
Getzen went into the tank for about 40 seconds, asking about the size of the shove and cautiously comparing it to his own stack size. Eventually, he picked up chips and said something along the lines of good luck to his opponent before dropping the chips in and tabling his hand.
"Player shows two kings," the dealer said.
"What, two kings?" responded Luo who felt much less confident about his hand at this point, tabling 
.
Much to Luo's favor, the board ran out 
and he secured the double while Getzen was left with a short stack.
