What's Up Doc? Not Your Pocket Fives.

Level 25 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

After Thomas Welch moved all in for 155,000 from the cutoff, Charles "Doc" Hanson called on the button.

Glenn Nunez then moved all in from the small blind for 670,000 putting Hanson to a decision for roughly half of his chips.

After pondering his decision, Hanson folded, saying he had pocket fives.

His tablemates then revealed their hands.

Thomas Welch: {q-Hearts}{9-Clubs}
Glenn Nunez: {q-Spades}{8-Spades}

Hanson immediately bemoaned his fold, saying he thought his opponents were stronger than the hands they turned over.

He'd be even less happy after the runout of {a-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{4-Spades}, which would have given him the win, but instead, Welch and Nunez chopped the pot, including Hanson's 150,000 chip call.
