Laborda Leaves His Seat, Lindell Lets It Go

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

A pot of 1,600,000 chips had been gathered by Hilton Laborda and Simon Lindell. The board was dealt up until the turn and read 8?7?10?Q?. Labardo piled his stack of 1,050,000 in from the small blind and Lindell went into the tank.

Laborda, in the meantime, stood up from his chair, went to his knees, and peeked over the table. "I'm not sure if you're bluffing," Lindell concluded before passing his cards to the dealer.

Laborda then showed, in dramatic fashion, his K? and then a few seconds later his K? for pocket kings. Lindell, meanwhile, claimed to have folded Kx10x for a pair of tens.
