The 45 remaining players are on their final 15-minute break of the day. After the break, one more level will be played until chips are bagged for the night.
Teun Mulder opened to 7,500 in middle position. A player shoved 46,500 from the small blind and Jer El Salsero went in the tank in the big blind. He leaned back and slowly, over the course of multiple minutes, counted out the calling chips.
It took nearly three minutes before El Salsero had slid in a call, which was for more than half his stack. Mulder snap-folded.
Jer El Salsero: ![]()
![]()
Small blind: ![]()
![]()
El Salsero's kings remained ahead as the ![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
board promoted El Salsero to a flush.
The flamboyant Dutchman got called out by his tablemates after the hand, who weren't all too pleased with El Salsero taking that long.
"What am I supposed to do guys?" shrugged El Salsero, who is up to 140,000 after the hand.

After Agshin Ahmadli had opened from under the gun and Ben Bensimhon had three-bet on the button, action was back on Ahmadli. The local cut out a four-bet to 33,900, Bensimhon responded with a five-bet to 68,000, and Ahmadli folded after some thought.

At the feature table, Egi Adriaans and Agshin Ahmadli were locking horns and created a pot of already 60,000. The board was reading ![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
and Adriaans, from under the gun, bet 16,200.
Ahmadli put in a raise to 42,200, which gave Adriaans a visible headache. He slumped back in his chair and tried to figure out what to do. Eventually, Adriaans called the clock on himself, then folded his hand.
