Doling Out Chips

We arrived to see a flop reading {6-Clubs} {j-Clubs} {9-Diamonds} on the felt, and although there was very little in the pot, Thomas Dolezal (small blind) had 10,900 out in front of him with around 20,000 behind, and the young gentleman on the button had a three/four/five-bet to 27,500 in front of him.

Dolezal was deep inside the tank by the time we got there. He was sitting back in his chair, gazing forlornly around the room, while his opponent stared intently at the board.

Eventually Dolezal went all in. His opponent had clearly not been counting on this turn of events - it was with a very unhappy shrug that he called the extra few thousand chips, and they turned the cards over.
