The hand started innocently enough, but ended with Praz Bansi losing about 35% of his chips without even seeing a flop.

The action was folded around to Bansi in late position. He opened for 14,000 and Ryan Eriquezzo three-bet to 36,000. Both blinds folded and Bansi came back over the top for 88,000. Eriquezzo five-bet to 150,000, Bansi put in a sixth raise to 300,000 and Eriquezzo moved all-in for about 900,000 total. He had Bansi covered.
Bansi thought for an eternity before giving up his hand and saving his last 530,000 for a better spot.

"Weeeeeeee!" said Eriquezzo, rubbing salt in the wound as he showed the . He's up to 1.25 million.
