Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Catching the action on a 8♦9♠J♦6♠7♣ river, Pavel Stribrny had jammed his stack of 58,200 into a pot of 100,000 from early position. Hijack Eros Zappacosta tanked for a few minutes, then the clock was called.
Zappacosta was given a 30-second countdown, and he called during the last few seconds of his countdown, putting his own stack of 52,500 at risk.
Stribrny tabled 10♣9♣ for a straight. Zappacosta tapped the table and showed A♣6♣ for a hero-call with bottom pair before leaving the tournament area.
