Stuhldreher's Set Gets Straightened Out By Casino and Chahal
Craig Welko alerted us to a three-way clash at Table 45, and Terry Stuhldreher had a dilemma on his hands.
Stuhldreher had 7,800 in front of him from early position with a board on the felt, and Bruce Chahal had jammed for 28,700 next to act. HPT's all-time tournament earnings leader Craig Casino then ripped his last 29,800 in from the small blind, and Stuhldreher was deep in the tank.
"Set over set over set?" Stuhldreher muttered. He then said, "I'll have a story to tell, anyhow," before eventually choosing to call the clock on himself. HPT Tournament Director Jeremy Smith came over, and after a few seconds, Stuhldreher started to push chips in to make the call.
Bruce Chahal:
Craig Casino:
Terry Stuhldreher:
"Ace!" Casino said, looking for a blank to keep Stuhldreher's set from filling up. The river was safe for both Chahal and Casino, and they chopped up all but 100 of Stuhldreher's chips. Stuhldreher would fall on the next hand to Casino.
