Secker Cuts Tushnet in Half
Level 16
: 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
Hans Secker checked from the big blind on a 
board, Joel Tushnet bet 6,000 from middle position and Secker responded with a check-raise to 15,000. Tushnet counted Secker's stack and as soon as he had counted the last chip he announced that he was all-in.
Secker seemed genuinely pained in his decision making, squirming in his seat, rubbing his hair before he finally pulled the trigger and called.
Secker: 
Tushnet: 
Although Secker had the best hand, he was actually a slight underdog due to Tushnet being able to catch an eight, ten or club to beat him. The 
was a safe card for Secker, as was the 
on the river and a delighted Secker doubled up. Tishnet did not look too pleased with the outcome.
