Torelli Holds On to Send Out Two
Rami Boukai was all in from the small blind for around 560,000 and Alec Torelli then reshoved in middle position. Matthew Davis in the hijack took off the dinosaur he uses as a card protector and stood up from his seat before announcing he was all in for around 1,500,000.
Rami Boukai: A♥K♣
Matthew Davis: A♠K♦
Alec Torelli: 10♥10♠
Torelli jumped from his seat upon seeing he was up against two players with the same hand and began filming the action as the flop came 2♥4♣J♣.
"Somebody's got to have a club," Torelli said heading to the 4♦ turn. "Pair the board," he pleaded, and Torelli saw the Q♠ fell on the river as his tens held up to send both opponents to the rail.
"Go for the glory, right," Davis, who was playing in his first Main Event, said.
"You should be proud," tablemate Daniel Vampan told him.
"I am. There is no part of me right now that is upset," Davis replied before joining Boukai at the payout desk.
"That was the perfect setup. When he started tanking I thought he had jacks," Torelli added.
