Fortini Thinks Better of It

Level 22 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Hayden Fortini
Hayden Fortini

Brian Green opened to 25,000 from middle position, and Hayden Fortini three-bet to 60,000 right next door. Action came around to Michael Simon, and he shoved all in for 188,000 total. That was enough to quickly shake Green off his hand, but Fortini was not so easily pacified. It would be several long minutes of tank time for Fortini before any action came. At one point, he halfway asked if Simon had pocket jacks, drawing a warning from the dealer about talking during the hand. "Do I have to answer?" Simon asked tongue-in-cheek.

It was another few minutes before Fortini released his cards into the muck, sending just about 300,000 chips over to Simon's corner.
