Hatmaker Claims a Scalp
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
With the board already dealt to the turn, and reading 6♦J♣5♦K♣, the player on the button made a bet and Casey Hatmaker, in early position, went into the tank.
Eventually the clock was called and when the countdown got to two seconds, Hatmaker made the call.
The river came a 4♣ and the button declared all in. This time Hatmaker called instantly.
Button: 8♥9♥
Casey Hatmaker: A♥J♠
Hatmaker's pair was good enough to claim the pot and bust his opponent.
Meanwhile, from a nearby table, Richard Seymour was seen exiting the tournament.
