No Love for Hartmann

[user66118]

Before the flop, Ari "BodogAri" Engel opened with a button raise to 7,200. The small blind folded, but Tony Hartmann came along from the big.

Heads up, the flop brought {8-Clubs}

. Hartmann checked, and Engel quickly tapped the table behind.

The turn was the {8-Diamonds}

. This time, Hartmann sat motionless for almost a full minute. Finally, he grabbed several stack of chips and announced that he was all in.

Ari Engel immediately slouched back in his chair with a look of disbelief on his face. "Can I get a count, please?" he asked. "But I'm 99 percent sure I'm calling." He didn't even wait for the full count; as the dealer began breaking down the stacks, Engel obliged with the call.

Showdown:
Hartmann: {10-Diamonds}
