Bowl of Rice

They say it's all about timing (others call it "luck"), but when Michael Greco pushed all in, his timing seemed a little off. Sadly, he doesn't possess X-ray vision, and with an even shorter stack picking up {K-Spades}{K-Hearts}, and Swee Chai finding {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}, Greco was in a spot of bother and fully braced for the inevitable duff duffs.

An uneventful board later and Chai was back up to the 35-40,000 mark. Greco, meanwhile, was left with what is commonly known as a "bowl of rice."
