: 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
On a board reading Andrew Sweeney moved all in for 174,000 against his opponent Mustapha Amaouche who had him covered but it would be a hugely significant decision if he lost the hand. Amaouche took his time and asked the usual list of questions including, “Flush draw?” But Sweeney hand his fists in front of his mouth and gave nothing away. The rest of the players gave him the respect and all the time he needed, and it did take a long time, over five minues. “Pass.” Said Amaouche. “Show him the three of hearts.” One wag at the table shouted. No cards were shown.
