Luca Needs Two Time Bank Chips

Level 4 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Ivan Luca raised to 5,100 in middle position and Oleksii Khoroshenin defended his big blind. Khoroshenin checked the {Q-Spades}{K-Spades}{5-Clubs} flop, Luca bet 6,500 and Khoroshenin called.

The turn paired the board with the {Q-Clubs}, putting two flush draws out there. Khoroshenin led out for 17,000 and Luca called. The river was the {2-Diamonds} and Khoroshenin moved all in.

It was for effectively Luca's remaining stack of 70,000 and the Argentinean went deep in the tank. With the shot clock in play, Luca needed two time bank chips to give himself two additional minutes to think about it. He checked out Khoroshenin's remaining stack and studied the Ukranian intensely before settling on a fold.
