Taberhams Gets Opponent to Dinner on Time

Action folded to the small blind, who shoved all in for 41,000 into Simon Taberham's 1,200 big blind.

"Are you late for dinner or something?" Taberham asked. It seemed the player was making it a habit of shoving for a ton of big blinds on the regular. We went to check on another table, and when we turned back around, Taberham had made the call.

Taberham: {k-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}
Opponent: {a-}{10-}

The board ran out {8-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}, and Taberham had the winner with a pair of kings.

"What's he have?" the small blind asked. The dealer informed him that a pair of kings was the winning hand. "Nice call," the small blind said.
