One for Iermolcheva
Olga Iermolcheva was facing a raise to 10,000 and when she looked at the clock to see what the blind level was, she shrugged and went all in.
When the player on the button went to sweat his cards to see if he had a hand to call with, Iermolcheva expressively waved her hand at at him saying, "Easy fold, easy fold." He laughed and told her she was right.
By the time it got back to the initial raiser, she was asked, "Do you want me to call?"
Candidly, Iermolcheva responsed with, "Honestly, no; I don't want a call. Normally, I would never say this, but if you fold I will show."
Not convinced, the initial raiser shook her head and contemplated the call but ultimately folding A?K? and Iermolcheva lived up to her word and showed 10?10?.
Her opponent said she put her on a big pair and that it wasn't worth it to put her chips at risk and Iermolcheva wholeheartedly agreed.
