Vadzim Godzdanker bet 900,000 from the button with {a-Clubs}{4-Clubs}. Selahaddin Bedir in the small blind used a time bank card then raised to 2,800,000 holding {a-Hearts}{6-Spades}.

Godzdanker double-checked their cards, crossed their arms, and went into deep thought using one time bank card. The Belorussian announced all-in for 10,200,000 and Bedir snap folded.

Bedir asked "What would you have done if I shoved?" to Godsdanker on their right. "I' would have folded" Was the reply.

Bedir smirked and quipped "Good shove bro!" and Godzdanker passed Bedir in the chip rankings.

Raise And Take It For Isaia

Level 34 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Selahaddin Bedir

Alessio Isaia holding {5-Hearts}{5-Spades} on the button moved all in for 7,325,000.

Selahaddin Bedir in the big blind looked down at {6-Clubs}{6-Spades} and contorted their neck into an almost impossible position. Bedir moved all of his time bank cards into the middle to indicate how tough the decision would be for them.

In the end, only two time bank cards were used and the Turkish high roller decided to relinquish their cards and Isaia took in the blinds and ante.
