Leah and Ketendjian Get in a Raising War
Level 12
: 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
The board read 
and Mike Leah led out for 150,000 into a pot of around 600,000. Hagop Ketendjian raised to 820,000 from middle position and the action was back on Leah. He wasted little time before announcing all in and Ketendjian had to make a decision for his tournament life.
After a brief moment, he made the call for his last 2,430,000 and the cards were tabled. Leah showed 
and Ketendjian flipped over 
. Both players held just one pair and the eyes nearly popped out of everyone sitting at the table.
"I was hoping you were going to shove," Ketendjian said to Leah.
Leah mumbled something back and Ketendjian was aware of who he was dealing with. "I know who you are."
