Shimizu Calls the Cards
''Two-two'', Nozomu Shimizu said from under the gun, as he raised to 2,200. Emil Bise flatted the raise from the cutoff before Hirokazu Kobayashi three-bet from the big blind. Shimizu then four-bet jammed his starting stack in the middle, still exclaiming ''two-two''. Bise got out of the way, but Kobayashi, who was sitting on only 15,000 chips, made the call.
Hirokazu Kobayashi: Q♥Q♦
Nozomu Shimizu: K♣K♦
Shimizu would be the victor in the Japanese showdown, as he almost immediately locked up the board when the flop came K♥2♠8♠. The 2♦ threw out the possibility of runner-runner quads, and the 3♣ river was dealt as a formality.
Kobayashi kept laughing throughout the ordeal, while Felipe Ketzer pointed at the pair of ducks on the board and said: ''You called the cards! That's how you win tournaments.''
