Bounahra Goes All In

Nível 3 : 50/100, 0 ante

We were walking around and saw Badih Bounahra with a pained look on his face. He was facing a large 2,475 chip bet from his opponent on an already developed board of .

He had calling chips in his hand ready to go, but then pulled them back. He kept looking like he was going to call but then stopping himself. He did this about three times before he slammed the chips on the table. But not only did he slam the calling chips down, he announced "All In."

His opponent was not to pleased with that and grumbled as he threw his cards into the muck. With that hand Bounahra is off to a good start with 15,000.
