Paraschiv Squeezes All-In

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante
Victor Paraschiv
Victor Paraschiv

Marvin Rettenmaier was seated under the gun and he made it his standard opening raise of 125,000. The next two players folded but Joseph El Khoury made the call from the small blind. Romania's Victor Paraschiv was the big blind and after taking a few moments he announced he was all in.

Rettenmaier asked for a count of Paraschiv's stack and was told it was 1,240,000; which was ultimate too much for either opponent to call and Paraschiv took down the pot.
