Mazairac Folds, Johnson Shows

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Didier Mazairac has lost a pretty hefty pot, but at least his fold was vindicated.

The board read {4-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{3-Spades} when we arrived and the pot already comprised around 600,000 chips. William Johnson had bet 200,000 leaving Mazairac with a torturous decision. He tanked up for a long, long time before asking, "If I fold, you show?" - that classic sign of an impending fold. Sure enough, he passed, showing his opponent {a-}{q-} for top pair. Johnson showed him pocket fours for a set, and though Mazairac's stack has been almost bisected he'll be able to sleep easy tonight.
