Somerville Can't Get Away
Level 24
: 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
Jason Somerville raised to 51,000 on the button, and big blind Eric Shiarla defended. Both checked the flop, and Shiarla looked like he was going to cut out a bet on the turn with the board reading 
. He decided to just shove all in. Somerville got a count and it was 393,000.
"I don't think I'm going to be able to fold this," Somerville said. "You wouldn't just turn a flush and then go, 'I'm all in,' that would be silly."
"That would be silly," Shiarla agreed.
"I think I have the best hand," Somerville continued. "That makes me want to put the money in."
After more thinking — and more talking — he finally did call.
Somerville: 
Shiarla: 
Shiarla had pulled a Somerville on Somerville, flopping two pair in the big blind. It held on the 
river.
