Berinde Busts Fhima and Ahuja
Jonathan Fhima raised it up to 2,500 in the hijack and was called by Ankit Ahuja in the cutoff. Bogdan Berinde then three-bet to 13,500 in the small blind for both of his opponents to call. Berinde bet the 
flop for 14,000 and Fhima almost immediately pushed all in.
Ahuja counted his stack for a few seconds and then also pushed them forward as well, cutting out the 39,300 he had at his disposal. Berinde asked for the all-in amounts with Fhima being at risk for 59,600 and then inquired about something else with the dealer.
"If they are all-in, can I talk myself? I am serious ..." Berinde asked and insisted to call a floor to verify it. Since he wasn't influencing any action, that option was indeed confirmed only for Berinde to then say no word at all for some two minutes until making the call.
Ankit Ahuja: 
Jonathan Fhima: 
Bogdan Berinde: 
The 
turn and 
river failed to improve either of the shorter stacks and Berinde vaulted near the top of the leaderboard. After talking through the hand when all was done, Berinde added he wasn't usually tanking that much but held the king of hearts in his hand, being worried more about Ahuja and not the instant shove by Fhima.
