"Either I Win Chips, or I Can Whine About Losing a Flip"

We found Rainer Kempe in the small blind putting a short-stacked Andrew Wilmot at risk, with the latter having shoved for a little under 6,000. Wilmot had {a-}{j-} and Kempe {3-}{3-}, and the flip went Wilmot's way as he flopped a pair of jacks.

"You didn't have to call with pocket threes," Wilmot said.

"Either I win chips, or I can whine about losing a flip," Kempe pointed out. "I can only win."
