  • It’s still only in level 5 but there are big enough stacks for some huge pots to develop. We came across a huge hand on the river on Table 47, where the player in Seat 10 had shoved and his opponent in Seat 1 was deeply in the tank.

    The board read 6 of Spades 7 of Spades Jack of Hearts 4 of Diamonds 9 of Spades and there was about 30K in the pot. The shove was for about 15K but he covered Nick in Seat 1. After quite a while in the tank Nick called time on himself and after about 35 more seconds he folded Jack of Spades Jack of Diamonds – top set – face up. The player in seat 10 had agreed to show his hand if he got the fold – and flipped over Ace of Hearts 6 of Clubs for a pretty audacious bluff.
