Giannoukos Calls Out Portaro's Hand
Level 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Andrew Theakstone started the action by opening to 1,200 from early position, with Bruno Portaro and Jim Giannoukos defending the small and big blind respectively.
The 3♣7♠6♥ flop was checked by all to see a J♦ turn. Potaro bet 1,500 and Giannoukos quickly called. Theakstone folded leaving the blinds to battle it out heads up on the 6♦ river.
Portaro bet 5,000 and Giannoukos went into the tank. He called out "Did you hit that jack?". After around 3-minutes, he flicked in a 5,000 chip to call and Portaro tabled his A♥J♣. Giannoukos slammed his card onto the table, face down and remarked "That f***ing jack", as his hand was mucked.
