Palomares Sends an Opponent Deep Into the Tank
Level 5
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
A player on the button bet 2,200 on a flop of 9♦4♦7♠ and the small blind called. Abelardo Palomares then raised to 8,000 in the big blind, and only the button called.
The turn was the 5♣ and Palomares bet another 12,000. His opponent again called, and Palomares then moved all in on the 3♣ river.
His opponent had around 25,000 remaining and went deep into the tank, taking nearly five minutes before the clock was called. He allowed his countdown to reach zero, and his hand was declared dead as Palomares took the pot without a showdown.
