Daniel Zink Wins Big Pot...Eventually!

Daniel Zink made it 3,000 to go from the cutoff position and Andrew Topakas made the call from the big blind.

The flop came {K-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}. Topakas checks the action over to Zink who fired a 4,000 to which Topakas called.

The turn is the {5-Hearts} and once again Topakas check-calls the 8,000 bet of Zink.

The river is the {2-Hearts} and Topakas checks the action for a third time. Daniel Zink then shows his seriousness for his hand by pushing the last of his 17,000 chips into the middle. Andrew Topakas goes into the tank...big time! He sits there for many minutes, riffling and cutting down his chips multiple times. Amazingly no one calls the clock on him - perhaps some are happy to sit and wait to allow others to bust around them until we reach the hand-for-hand bubble stage.

Eventually Andrew Topakas decides to wait for a better spot and lays down his hand and Daniel Zink moves to over 45,000 in chips.
