lioi Persuades Malkin to Call
Level 20
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Eran Malkin raised to 32,000 from the cutoff. Mihai Ilioi then moved all in for 166,000 from the button and was at risk. The rest of the table folded, leaving Malkin with a decision to make. "Think about if you lose, you'll be in trouble," Ilioi told his neighbor. "I will show you and you will be happy," he shouted jovially. After some time, Malkin was persuaded to call and was behind.
Mihai Ilioi: J♣J♠ 
Eran Malkin: K♣8♣
The board ran out 5♠Q♦3♥Q♣A♥ securing a much needed double up for Ilioi.
