Shabalin Makes Little Mistake; Still Wins Without Showdown
Niveau 28
: 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante
Paul raised to 125,000 from the hijack and action folded to Vladimir Shabalin in the big blind.
"Never fold against you! You can't steal my big blind!" Shabalin said to Paul. Paul just smiled.
Shabalin grabbed chips as a call and put them in, the dark green 25,000-value chips and the 100,000-value blue-ish chip are very similar so he put in 200,000 instead of 125,000 for the call. The dealer said it was a raise. Vladimir then realized his mistake but it was too late.
Paul four-bet to 600,000 and Shabalin snap-five-bet shoved with the bigger stack. Paul insta-folded.
