Kevin Chapman was under the gun or thought he was under the gun and he was questioning why he wasn't the next to act and the fellows at the table made it a joke that it is called a senior's moment. Chapman was one of the youngest at the table so had a good laugh. When they figured out that he was next to act he moved all in for about 2,500,000. Andrew Bradshaw called and with dramatic fashion left the table and exclaimed, "Tell me when it's over".
Kevin Chapman: 9♥9♠
Andrew Bradshaw: K♦Q♠
The flop came down with 8♦5♠K♠6♦6♥ and the table yelled at him to come back as he had hit a king for the win which knocked out Chapman.
Bradshaw announced, "There will be no more running me around anymore, especially from you", and pointed to the player two seats down from him.
