Huge Fold from "Nik Airball"
Action was picked up on the turn with players four-handed and the board reading 10♠9♥5♥J♦.
Nikhil Arcot, better known on Hustler Casino Live as "Nik Airball", checked from the small blind. Nuno Duarte bet 6,000 from the big blind, getting a call from a player in early position while folding out a player in middle position. Airball raised to 17,000 and Duarte responded by moving all in, covering Airball's remaining stack of a bit over 100,000 and sending him deep into the tank.
"Sorry guys, I have a big hand" Airball told his tablemates after about three minutes. Eventually, Airball folded J♥J♣ face up for top set, sending a sizable pot Duarte's way. Airball could later be heard telling his opponents that he never would have folded in that spot had he been playing a cash game.
