Livello 30 : 50,000/100,000, 10,000 ante

Sean Getzwiller entered the pot from the button with a raise to 165,000 and was called by Sadan Turker from the big blind.

The flop fell {8-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds} {8-Clubs} and Turker led out for 175,000 only to have Getzwiller bump it to 350,000. Turker went deep into the tank before pushing out a stack of chips amounting to 775,000.

Getzwiller attempted to exchange some friendly banter, but it was to no avail. Then after two minutes of summing up his options, Getzwiller reached for several stacks of chips which looked to amount to roughly 1,420,000. But before he could push them into the pot, Turker released his hand and slipped to roughly 5,535,000 in chips as Getzwiller climbs to 7,000,000 in chips.
