Li Prepays, Gets Refund

Level 29 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Fred Li opened to 240,000 from middle position. Action was on the hijack, Steven Karp, for quite some time before the clock was called. With just a second left, he moved all in, and Li quickly called when it folded back to him.

Steven Karp: A♥K♣ All in
Fred Li: A♦7♦

"How much do you have?" asked Li, as he began to count out the chips to pay his opponent. That seemed to do the job for him, as the 9♦8♦6♦ flop gave him the check mark instantly. His redraw to the straight flush didn't come in on the 8♥4♥ runout, but his opponent's chips were at least a consolation.
