button in SafariFreidkes Puts Welko to the Test
Level 13
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Craig Welko raised to 11,000 in the hijack, John Freidkes three-bet to 26,000 on the button, and Welko called.
Freidkes bet 25,000 on the 10♠4♥7♦ flop, and Welko called to see the 5♣ turn. Freidkes then moved all in.
Welko spent several minutes in the tank as he contemplated the decision for his last 60,000. Tablemates Ryan Bunes and Niall Costigan then played a game of rock, paper, scissors to see which one of them would call the clock. Welko allowed his 30-second countdown to nearly reach zero before sending his cards into the muck.
