Held Back In Business With Another Double
Razvan Belea eyeballed the stack of Konstantin Held when it had folded to him in the big blind and then pushed all-in when the German revealed he held ten big blinds behind.
Held grasped his time banks and started using them with ten in total at his disposal on a pay jump. As he glanced over to the live-streamed feature table, he started some banter.
"I want to use this time to give you an important message," he commenced before cracking a smile. Among other persons, he thanked his seventh grade biology teacher and then looked over at the feature table again when the sixth time bank was used.
"What is going on there?" he asked and Mehdi Chaoui replied back "just call it off man" to which Held added "I will, in twenty seconds" which he then indeed did.
Konstantin Held: 
Razvan Belea: 
The board ran out 
and Held doubled for 645,000. "Sorry for all the drama," he apologised in table chat.
One hand later, Mathieu Di Meglio raised to 130,000 in the cutoff and Belea called on the button. Held three-bet to 1,325,000 with one T-25,000 chip behind and Di Meglio asked for an exact amount on the raise before letting go, Belea also quickly folded as well.
