Hammer Swings at Zerbib
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Action was picked up on the turn, with the board reading Q♠J♠9♥2♣. Late position Jerome Zerbib checked over to Hammer, who threw out on overbet of 115,000. With 90,000 in the middle, Zerbib took quite some time before counting out a stack, and sliding it forward for a call.
The 8♣ fell on the river, and Zerbib checked again. Hammer composed himself, before announcing "all in," equivalent yet another overbet. He had Zerbib's stack of 330,000 covered, and Zerbib thought for an extremely long time.
After a good two minutes, Hammer called the clock. Zerbib laughed, then complained at Hammer for calling it. Eventually, time ran out, and his hand was announced as dead.
