Steaming After a Bad Laydown

On a board of {6-?} {6-?} {5-?} {10-?} {3-?} and with about 30,000 in the pot the big blind leads out for 12,000 and Nikolay Evdakov calls from under the gun.

Action moves to the player on the cut off who goes into the tank. For more than four full minutes it appears as if the decision is causing him in physical pain. Finally, a player at the table calls the clock.

With the added pressure of the floor staff counting down in his ear he lays down {J-?} {J-?} face up on the table.

The big blind shows pocket eights while Evdakov tables {A-?} {10-?} for tens and sixes.

The player that had the clock called on him storms out of the room, upset at his laydown. The rest of the table shares a laugh at his expense as play moves on.
