Ward Gets Paid

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante

When we walked up to the table, there was a turned board of {7-Hearts} {9-Diamonds} {7-Spades} {6-Spades} in the middle of the table, and about 120,000 chips in the pot. Scott Ward had made a small bet of 40,000, and his opponent moved all in with the covering stack. Ward had about 240,000 chips left, and he spent a good long while in the tank, staring around the room. After a few minutes, he spoke up.

"Can we get a floor over here? I'd like to ask a question."

It took a little while for the floor staff to make it to the table, and Ward had his audience. "The board says there are 81 players left. Is that accurate?" The floorman told him it was an accurate count, and Ward continued, "The bubble is at 80. There's a guy all in over there. If we bust at the same time, who gets the money?"

Ward was referring to the $6,500 pay difference between 81st and 80th places. The floor said, "You're asking me a confusing question. We're not hand-for-hand here, so whoever busts out first busts out first."

"Okay, I'm going to have to wait then," Ward said, leaning back in his chair. "It's a $5K bubble. A $5K flip."

From across the table, Toby Lewis immediately called the clock, acknowledging that he understood Ward's predicament. "I know what you're saying, but we're all short here," Lewis said as he pointed to his small stack, and the floorman instructed Ward he had one minute to act on his hand.

About 45 seconds into the countdown, a player was eliminated across the room, and Ward quickly called all in for his tournament life.

Showdown
Ward: {K-Diamonds} {K-Clubs} (kings up)
Opponent: {8-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds} (ten-high straight)

"Good hand," Ward said, knocking the table. The river {9-Hearts} failed to save his tournament life, and he has been eliminated. It looks like his ploy has earned him an 80th-place cash.
