Bigot Goes Into Tank
Kyriakos Papadopoulos had raised under the gun and Fabrice Bigot had called from the small blind. On a 2♠4♥A♣ flop, Bigot checked to Papadopoulos, who put in a continuation-bet of 1,100 chips.
Bigot then raised to 4,000 and Papadopoulos made the call. Both players went on to check the 10♥ turn before Bigot bet 8,000 on the 9♥ river, around half of Papadopoulos' stack.
Papadopoulos then shoved the rest in the middle, which caused Bigot to think the situation over for a few minutes. Eventually, the clock was called on him, and under the pressure of time, he slammed in a call.
Papadopoulos showed 7♥7♠ for a pair of sevens, no match for the A♦J♦ of Bigot. Bigot celebrated his correct call and raked in the chips, while Papadopoulos headed to the exit.
