Pollak Shoves With Heart(s)

Level 16

NLH

Action folded to last year's WSOP Main Event finalist Benjamin Pollak who made it 75,000 out of the small blind, holding {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}. Mixed games wizard Chris Vitch went for a move in NLH, three-betting to 250,000 with {Q-Spades}{4-Clubs}. Pollak called.

They saw the {3-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} hit the felt and Vitch didn't continue bluffing. He slowed down and checked behind before repeating that on the {K-Diamonds} turn.

The {2-Diamonds} river counterfeited Pollak's top pair as both players played the diamond board. Pollak, however, didn't want to chop and moved all-in for more than what was inside the pot. Vitch double-checked his cards before mucking, leaving the pot to Pollak.
