  • Rayan Chamas just made the call of his tournament, and it took him nearly 8 minutes to decide that his hand must be good.

    With the board showing 6 of Hearts 5 of Clubs 8 of Diamonds 3 of Diamonds 9 of Diamonds, and around 150K in the pot, Rayan checked to Danny Boyaci for a third street in a row, and Danny announced he was all-in for 234K. Rayan looked a little surprised with this move, and proceeded to think… and think… and think… A small crowd began to gather around the table, as players from other tables were getting intrigued with the action. Rayan stood up, shook his head, and eventually slid some chips forward to signify a call.

    Danny turned over Ace of Diamonds Jack of Clubs for ace-high, and Rayan tabled 5 of Diamonds 5 of Spades for a winning set of 5s. Rayan is now sitting on a comfortable 525K+ stack, while Danny fell 4 spots short of the money.
