Binger Tanks, Then Doubles

The action folded to Jean-Robert Bellande, who raised to 12,000 on the button. Nick Schulman folded his small blind, and Michael Binger went into the tank from the big. After about a minute and a half, he folded, and Bellande took off one of his headphones.

"What are you doing?" he asked Binger. "I've never called the clock on anyone, and I was about to call it on you before the draw!"

"It was for a third of my stack," Binger replied.

The banter continued as the next hand began, and the action folded to Binger, who moved all in. Rep Porter called out of the big blind.

Binger fanned {10-}{9-}{8-}{6-}{5-}, and Porter showed {9-}{6-}{3-}{2-}. We didn't catch his down card, but it didn't improve his hand, because he mucked.

"That's why I did that," Binger told Bellande.
