Kara-geous Call Doubles Scott Through

Andrew Pantling, cruising in fifth gear, raises to 70,000 on the button, winning the blinds, then gives it another go in the cutoff. This time button Kara Scott reraises to 175,000. Back to Pantling, who quickly announces "All in", putting the same pressure on her as he was doing to other short stacks through yesterday's latter stages.

She doesn't pass, however. She thinks for a long time, fingers laced, and chats, smiling, with Pantling. Whatever she gleans from this interaction (wish I could hear what she was saying) she makes a decision: call.

Kara shows {8-Hearts} {8-Diamonds}, in great shape against Pantling's {3-Diamonds} {3-Spades}. The {K-Hearts} {A-Clubs} {10-Spades} flop is met with hush from the crowd, but a round of applause greets the {8-Spades} turn, giving Scott trips and leaving Pantling drawing dead. Over 1,500,000 for her now.
