Shark Attack! Palma Devours Gabdullin's Jack-Ten with All-In Bite
Jose Valls Rebollar made it 900 from the hijack and Damir Gabdullin three-bet the cutoff to 3,000. Nick Palma was on the button and pushed all of his 18,500 chips into the middle while holding a stuff shark toy and repeating "The shark is coming, the shark is coming,".
Rebollar got out of the way, and after a few moments contemplating, Gabdullin stuck in the call.
Nick Palma: J♠J♥
Damir Gabdullin: J♣10♣
Gabdullin didn't like what he saw and didn't pick up much hope with the 4♥Q♠2♠ flop, which left him needing to hit running cards to eliminate Palma. However, the 4♠10♥ runout locked up the pot for Palma, who celebrated with his shark toy.
"Yum, yum, yum," said Palma while his shark toy went on a feeding frenzy with the chips he just won.
"This guy thinks he can KO me with jack-ten? I flew here for this. He calls with jack-ten? I mean I'd swim here for this!" Palma continued.
