Pollak Makes a Quick Appearance

Level 7 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Benjamin Pollak just entered the tournament during the dinner break and has seen his first entry burn in flames already. Chris Hunichen opened from the hijack and Benjamin Pollak three-bet to 8,000 from the cutoff. The action folded back around to Hunichen who four-bet shipped all in. Pollak would be the player at risk and took a moment to think.

"I faded the snap-call," Hunichen said with a laugh.

Pollak did end up calling and it was a race scenario. Pollak held the {j-Spades}{j-Hearts} and Hunichen showed the {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}. The flop came {a-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{3-Spades} and Hunichen quickly took the lead. He wouldn't look back either as the {10-Diamonds} and {5-Spades} completed the board.

Pollak headed for the cash cage to get his second bullet and should return shortly.
