Cirstea Pays Off Robinson

David Robinson opened with a raise to 17,000. Ciprian Cirstea called in the next seat and then Samer Rahman called on the button. The three players saw the flop come down {K-Clubs} {7-Diamonds} {7-Hearts}.

Robinson fired a continuation bet of 25,000. Cirstea seemed unpleased with the bet and looked in pain while he mulled over the decision. Rahman looked very bored while waiting for his action, staring at the ceiling as if he had already mucked his hand. After two minutes, Cirstea made the call and Rahman quickly folded.

The turn brought the {K-Hearts} and Robinson didn't flinch for about 20 seconds before checking with a few taps of his finger. Cirstea quickly checked behind.

The river was the {5-Spades} and again Robinson took his time before moving. He counted out a bet of 55,000 and slid it into the middle. Cirstea put his own 55,000 in immediately after.

Robinson tabled {A-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds} and Cirstea flung his cards into the muck, yelling in a language we could not understand. Robinson is up to 405,000.
