Tajiou Takes it on the River
Level 8
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Mounir Tajiou opened 6,000 on the button, and both Nozomu Shimizu and Sirzat Hissou came along in the blinds.
All three players checked to the 6♣4♠3♦7♥ turn, where Shimizu checked once more and Hissou fired 10,000. Tajiou called, while Shimizu folded.
The 10♣ landed on the river, and Hissou checked. Tajiou went into the tank, using two time chips before betting 50,000. Hissou paused for a few seconds and pitched it into the muck.
"Did you have a good hand?" Asked Hissou.
"I can't remember," Tajiou responded, "I have a fish brain."
