Beresford Slowrolls or Beresford Nitrolls? Either Way, He Wins

Level 20 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Markus Durnegger and Conor Beresford each put in 118,000 on a board of {5-Spades}{3-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}, and Durnegger, who was in the big blind, used a time extension on the {9-Diamonds} river. He covered his face and then slid in 225,000. Beresford tanked and muttered something about being happy he checked the flop. He decided to call.

Durnegger showed {k-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} but it was no good against {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}.

After the hand, Sam Grafton teased Beresford about his reluctant call.

"Beresford Slowrolls or Beresford Nitrolls," he suggested as the titles for this post. "Pressure Getting to Beresford."
