Another Crazy Hand From Table 4

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Earlier we had the tank-call with pocket kings now we have a hand that even the floor staff are shaking their heads at!

Atzlan Gil opened the betting with a raise from early position, two players folded and Giuseppe Pantaleo three-bet. To his direct left is the boyfriend of Gaelle Baumann, [Removed:167] and he cold-called the three-bet. Gil also called and it was three way to the {8-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{4-Clubs} flop.

Gil lead out with a bet of 18,200, Pantaleo made the call but Ehrhardt made it 44,000 to play, leaving himself just 21,000 behind. Gil went into the tank for around 90-seconds, constantly staring on Ehrhardt, before folding. He later claimed to have folded {Q-}{Q-}. Pantaleo was sat with his right hand covering his mouth and after 30-45 seconds he moved all-in and was obviously snap-called.

Pantaleo: {j-Spades}{8-Spades}
Ehrhardt: {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades}

Gasps reverberated around the table as the dealer put out the {4-Hearts} turn and the {9-Diamonds} river, boosting Ehrhardt to 140,000 chips and leaving a red-faced Pantaleo woth around 65,000.
