Ho's Turtle on the Line
Niveau 28
: 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
A big pot between Richard Sperberg and Alan Ho got a little odd on the turn, with the board standing 
. There was nearly 1,500,000 in the middle already when Sperberg checked and Ho, in position, verbally bet "three million" while picking up 300,000 in chips. The extra zero was made to stand, meaning Ho had set his opponent all in (for around one million). Sperberg went into the tank as the dealer began to count out the huge bet from Ho's stack.
"Stop counting," Sperberg said eventually. "Is the turtle on the line?" This referenced Ho's black turtle card protector that has been called "invincible" earlier today. Finally, Sperberg folded.
