Sitbon Folds Aces to Macesovic's Shove
Julien Sitbon and Irena Macesovic were heads-up on a board of J?J?7?3?6? when Sitbon bet 28,000 in middle position. Macesovic came back with an all-in shove, having Sitbon's remaining 40,000 covered.
"No jacks," Macesovic told him as Sitbon held A?A? above the table.
"Is it okay to fold this," Sitbon asked a tournament official as he tanked for several minutes.
"Okay, help me. Please tell me what to do," he said to Macesovic. "Can I keep these in my pocket for next hand?"
Riadh Farhat then came by from another table and saw Sitbon's cards. "Call," he said, pretending to put Sitbon's chips in.
"If he calls, you should play against him," Sitbon told Macesovic. "This is for you," he added, throwing the A? in to the middle, followed by the A?. Macesovic mucked without showing.
"Threes or sixes," Sitbon asked her.
"I don't remember," Macesovic replied.
"Don't lie to me," Sitbon added.
"I remember. I just don't want to tell you," as the easy-going table had a good laugh at their table banter.
