Thompson Jams Into Salazar Sanchez
Level 14
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
It was a long last hand that unfolded over on table nine in which Mauricio Salazar Sanchez opened, Charles Chao called and Gary Thompson then three-bet to 120,000. Only Salazar Sanchez called and they headed to the Q♥J♣9♠ flop, on which Thompson bet 80,000 and Salazar Sanchez called.
Thompson used a time bank on the 3♣ turn and made it 145,000 to go, Salazar Sanchez called once more.
After the 5♠ river, Thompson used another time bank and then pushed all-in for 295,000. Salazar Sanchez likewise needed extra time and used two time banks before he ended up folding five minutes into the second break of the day.
