Tanita Calls His Shot
"I'm about to rip it all in from the button for a sick triple up," Tanita told PokerNews before a card had even been dealt. "Tell you what, if we play it at all, it's all going in, good or bad," he continued as cards began hitting the felt.
After a raise to 5,000 from late position, Tanita looked down at his cards. "Oh those are for sure going in" he said as he put his entire stack of chips into the pot, an even 50,000. Action folded back around to late position, where the player began to think it over.
"C'mon you're so due for a loss," Tanita told his opponent. After a minute or so, the opponent tossed in the call and the two were racing.

Tanita was in rough shape, but had some hope after the 
board gave him a flush draw. The 
turn was inconsequential, but the 
on the river completed Tanita's flush, securing him the double up.
