The river was the and Limo bet 7,300. The player on the button tanked for a couple minutes before moving all in, which sent Limo into a tank of his own.

“All that hollywooding and then you go all in?” asked Limo. “Worst part is that I had two pair already. It’s retarded, bro.  It’s so sick.”

Limo asked the dealer to pull in the dead money and see what the remainder is. It is an additional 19,500 for Limo to call the all in. Limo asked his opponent a couple times if he would show him if he folded. The button never responded and Limo eventually tossed face-up into the muck.

The button mucked his hand as well and Limo watched the pot get pushed to his opponent on the other end of the table.

Chris Limo – 46,200
