Fakhimi Would Have Called

Level 27 : 60,000/120,000, 20,000 ante

Shawn Fakhimi raised to 245,000 in early position and a player on the button came along to see the {J-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{5-Clubs} flop.

Both players checked and Fakhimi fired 285,000 on the {10-Spades} turn. His opponent countered with a raise to 650,000 and Fakhimi called.

The river brought an interesting action with Fakhimi checking and his opponent throwing his cards away. A floor person was called to clarify whether the player was allowed to muck and it was deemed that he could as it was the same as if he checked and then mucked.

"I thought you were all in," the player explained why he mucked on the river.

Fakhimi showed {7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} and said: "I wanted you to go all in. I would have called you. Seriously."
