Ole Schemion limped from the small blind and Philip Sternheimer checked his option in the big blind. The flop fell and Schemion bet 26,000. Sternheimer raised to 65,000 and Schemion moved all in rather quickly.

"Oh Oh, Ole," said Sternheimer.

"What you got?" replied the EPT10 POY contender.

""I got something that I don't think i want to fold. Not six four though."

Sternheimer ultimately tossed in the chips for the call and Schemion was at risk for his last 307,000. He turned over and was ahead with the kicker against the of his opponent. Both the turn and the river changed nothing and Schemion is back in business.

He then joked with table neighbor Mustapha Kanit: "Top pair no fold."
