Backa Adds More; Late Night Big Stacks

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

The board read {3-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}. The pot was about 60,000 and Sergio Ramirez was facing a decision for his tournament life as Marsel Backa had forced him all in.

After several minutes, clock was called. The floor came over to administer the countdown and Ramirez folded with a few seconds left. Backa wanted to show only Ramirez the cards, so he took a picture with his phone to show later, but in the rush to get the cards back to the dealer, it was blurry and he showed the table the blurry picture where the hand could not be deciphered.

He claimed it was the {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} as he hauled in the pot to add more to his large stack. Meanwhile at the table next door, Shota Nakanishi has one of the largest stacks as well.
