Livello 11 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Action folded to the short-stacked Bert Stevens in the small blind, who moved all in for 57,000.

Vicente Delgado in the big blind looked at his cards, and said "I think as you're short-stacked I probably have to call."

A smiling Stevens said "Well you probably don't have to, you're not committed." Delgado chuckled and confirmed the call.

Bert Stevens: A♣3♥ All in
Vicente Delgado J♣2♣

Stevens was ahead and looked in good shape for a double-up after the A♦4♠2♠ flop.

However the 2♦ rolled off on the turn to give Delgado trip twos, and the 7♥ river confirmed Steven's exit, Stevens wishing the table good luck as he departed.
