Beck and His Origami Bird Snap One Off With Kings
Andrew Lichtenberger raised to 1,800 in middle position before Philip Beck three-bet to 6,600 in middle position. The small blind then moved all in for around 20,000, Lichtenberger folded, while Beck snap called.
All-In Player: Q♠Q♥ 
Philip Beck: K♠K♥
Beck had woken up with kings to leave his opponent at risk of elimination as the board ran out 2♣2♠8♣A♠10♣, securing the pot for Beck and sending the small blind to the rail.
"I wasn't going to do this unless I doubled up or something," Beck said as he got up from his seat.
"Backflip?" Lichtenberger joked.
"I don't do flips. When I was in line to register on Friday, I met a sweet lady who made this. It keeps you zen," Beck added as he took a blue Origami bird figurine out of his backpack and placed it on top of his chips.
