Tedeschi Can't Get Away
Level 19
: 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Paul Tedeschi thought awhile on a completed board of 
in middle position. There was over 300,000 in the pot already, and he slowly slid in a bet of 188,000. Lee Hon Cheong took his own thinking time on the button and then pushed all of his chips in the middle. Tedeschi took a deep breath and looked away from the table with a sigh.
He asked for a count, and it was 411,000. Tedeschi would need to commit nearly all of his stack to call the shove. After a few minutes of thought, another player called the clock on Tedeschi. With just under 30 seconds left on his timer, he flicked in a chip to call.
Cheong showed 
for a backdoor nut flush. Tedeschi turned over 
for the flopped nut straight.
