, and Daniel Pelletier had matched Makhija's shove.
Makhija showed up 
for the nuts, and Pelletier made a motion to table his hand, which he apparently thought was superior. Halfway through the process, though, he noticed that Makhija had made the nuts, and he froze. "Magic f***in' river, huh?" he asked. "Magic f***in' river."
Makhija just quietly raked in the double, and he's moved up just shy of 50,000 now. Pelletier is down to just about 10,000.
