Ankit Ahuja had previously won a healthy pot by betting out Yukako Hiroi. She then jams over the top of the short stack all-in of Shmuel Snir Bechor, who is at risk for 101,000 only.
Kevin Ewald in the blinds happily calls all-in for 717,000 as he has the .
Bechor with the and Hiroi with
need a lot of help. They actually have the chance for an unlikely chop after the
turn but the wheel never completes, instead it is the
that follows on the river.
After the hand is over, Hiroi asks if she should have just called the first all-in preflop. The answer from several players is yes, but as Michael Gathy points out “you just saved time”, referring to the likely call of Ewald’s reshove.
