Nelson Wins Blind War

The table folded around to Lee Nelson in the small blind who popped it up to 30,000. Van Marcus thought for a moment before casually tossing out calling chips.

The flop came down {5-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{10-Clubs} and Nelson immediately moved all in at the pot, sending Marcus into the tank. He asked for a count and it was determined as 156,000 to make the call. Marcus has been playing very snug, so his deep thought indicated a possible strong hand, but he also continues to tread carefully here today. He decided to avoid a big clash with Nelson and let his hand go.
