Good Fold, Bro

From middle position, a short-stacked player moved all in for just over 20,000. Two seats over, Scott Zakheim grabbed his whole stack of 32,400 and moved all in himself. The betting passed around to Dwyte Pilgrim, and he sat still, apparently contemplating a tough decision.

"Aw shit, bro," he said before asking for Zakheim's count. When he learned the number, he sighed and said, "I fold," as he flashed his {9-Spades} {9-Clubs}. With the betting closed, the cards were turned up.

Showdown:
Zakheim: {A-Hearts} {A-Diamonds}
Opponent: {A-Spades} {K-Hearts}

There wasn't much drama for the all-in player as the flop came out {6-Spades} {5-Hearts} {A-Clubs}. The useless {8-Diamonds} and {10-Clubs} filled out the board, and Zakheim earns his knockout, chipping his way up to 51,000.
