Wrong Move at the Right Time

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante

With around 9,000 in the pot and a flop of {8-Spades}{10-Hearts}{a-Spades}, Bob Buyce bet 6,300 under the gun and Elliott Hebden raised to 14,000 from middle position. Buyce asked for a count on how much Hebden asked behind, and the dealer obliged. As it turned out, Buyce, who had 47,325 total, had the smaller stack.

After several minutes passed by, Buyce announced that he was all in and Hebden snap-called.

Hebden: {10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}
Buyce: {a-Clubs}{6-Clubs}

Buyce had seemingly picked the wrong spot, but he was rewarded for it nonetheless as the dealer burned and turned the {A-Diamonds}. An upset Hebden was left drawing dead, and after the {J-Spades} was run out on the river for good measure, he sent the vast majority of his chips over to Buyce.
