Nivel 10
: 400/800, 100 ante
Under the gun, a player threw his last, lonely, yellow T1,000 chip into the pot. That's a call, and the simple mistake drew a pretty good chuckle from the rest of the table. Nick Maimone called as well, and Lex Veldhuis announced, "Protection," as he raised to 2,800. The under-the-gun player verbally called the extra 200 chips to put himself at risk, and Maimone called the raise as well.
The board ran out 
, and the two live players checked to the river. On the final street, Veldhuis made a motion to bet, and Maimone mucked. Veldhuis tabled 
, and it earned him the pot, the knockout, and a chip increase to about 79,000.
