Nakai Asks for it All
Level 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Action was joined with 8,000 already in the pot and a board showing 2♦5♠9♦6♥.
Under the gun player, Ryuta Nakai, checked to John Volpendesta in the cutoff, who placed a bet of 10,000. Nakai's response was one of total pressure, moving all in, covering his opponent.
Volpendesta looked a tortured soul while deciding what to do, but reluctantly abandoned his chips already in the middle by returning his cards to the dealer.
