A Lot Of Drama For A Very Small Pot
Sep 08, '13
Belal Assi raised to 41,000 and Adam Shuman made the call. The flop fell J
8
7 and both players checked.
The turn was the 4 and Assi checked, only to see Shuman bet 56,000. Assi took about a minute to make the call and the river was the 3
.
Assi checked and Shuman bet 100,000. Assi then went into the tank, talking to Shuman and everyone else at the table. After four minutes, Eddy Mroczkowski called for the clock and Assi made the call. (Keep in mind, this is a 5 big blind bet into an 11 big blind pot)
Shuman showed 99 and Assi breathed an exagerated sigh of relief, flipping up AJ for top pair top kicker.
“You know the cameras aren’t until tomorrow, right?” asked Mroczkowski.
Assi didn’t respond, but has repeatedly taken an incredibly long amount of time for seemingly basic poker decisions. Needless to say, he is not a favorite among the rest of the final tablists.
At this point in the tournament, the average stack size is 510,000, or 25.5 big blinds.
