Stamatis Puts Haddad in the Blender on the Bubble
Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
A big pot of around 500,000 was already in the middle as Roland Haddad and Alkividis Stamatis went to the turn on a board of 6♦10♣5♣3♠. Haddad then bet 100,000 from the big blind and Stamatis moved all in from the hijack.
Haddad shot out of his seat after Stamatis announced his shove. "Better than ten?" he asked.
"Who knows," Stamatis replied.
"What do you have, be honest," Haddad added.
"Ace-king of clubs," Stamatis said, and the two spent a few more minutes exchanging some banter.
Haddad asked the floor how much time he had to act as the minutes continued to tick by. He eventually announced a fold and tossed his cards into the muck, while Stamatis returned his cards face down and took in the big pot.
