Cahill Tanks for Minutes After Facing Over-Bet
Level 15
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Benedikt Wenzel and Seamus Cahill had created a pot of 72,000 when a flop of 7♥Q♥A♥ was dealt. Wenzel bet 18,000 out of the small blind, seeing Cahill call in the cutoff.
Wenzel fired another small bet, 25,000 this time, on the 2♣ turn, which Cahill also called.
Wenzel then moved all in on the 7♣ river, for a huge bet of 285,000, covering Cahill by a few blinds.
"Did you see my 100K's?" Cahill asked. "Did you see that I have 250,000?"
Wenzel did not reply and continued staring stoically. After five minutes or so, Cahill mucked his hand in defeat. The pot was shipped to Wenzel, who returned his cards to the dealer face down.
