Level 37
: Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
After some back and forth, Jamie Walden decided to go all in with K♥3♣. Naseem Salem called with 2♠2♦, setting up a classic race situation.
As the cards were revealed, Salem reassured Walden, saying, "You're safe, you're safe," predicting a double up for his opponent.
His prediction proved accurate as the flop came down 10♥K♣4♠, giving Walden a pair of kings. The turn and river didn't change the outcome, securing the double-up for Walden, who was visibly pleased with the result.
