Vornicu Ships it on the River

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

After arriving at the table with the full board on the table reading {9-Hearts}{4-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}, the small blind led out for 12,600 into a pot of around 26,000. Valentin Vornicu was in the cutoff and jammed all in for exactly 44,000.

His opponent asked for a count and then went into the tank for a couple of minutes.

"Will you show me if I fold?" he asked, but Vornicu sat still and silent while Dan Smith and Scott Seiver discussed their dinner plans.

After a few minutes, the small blind eventually mucked his cards and Vornicu raked in the pot.
