Just in the Nicki of Time

With a raise in front, Chris Klodnicki moved all in from the big blind.

"I feel like gambling," his opponent announced before finally calling.

Showdown
Klodnicki: {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Opponent: {k-Clubs}{q-Hearts}

"I thought you had two fives," Klodnicki's opponent sighed.

The board ran {9-Spades}{a-Clubs}{j-Spades}{8-Spades}{a-Hearts}, and Klodnicki stayed alive. There was some confusion after the hand though after the dealer counted Klodnicki's stack at 118,000.

"There's NO way it's that little," Klodnicki shot at him.

His stack was counted no less than three times, once by a floorperson, and each time it was indeed 118,000. Klodnicki was baffled by this, but we're sure he's content with the double-up to 340,000 chips.
