Taghla Tanks for Three Minutes
Level 4
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
With around a 4,000 in the pot on J♦2♣6♠10♦ board, Matteo Orchide checked from early position and Mohamed-Said Taghla bet 2,300 from the hijack. Giuseppe Ditaranto called in the cutoff, and Orchide also called.
The river brought a 9♣ and it checked around to Ditaranto, who bet 5,900. Orchide quickly folded, but Taghla wasn't as fast to decide. One, two, three minutes passed and Taghla finally rechecked his cards for the last time and released them, tapping the table in Ditaranto's direction when he did so.
