The board read and Bram Uittenbogaard had bet 5,700 from the big blind and Gregor Prizmic Martini was considering his options for a while in the early position.
After a while, Martini said: "I am just wondering if I should raise or just call. I have a really strong hand..."
Uittenbogaard shrugged: "Just play your game,".
Martini put in the chip for just a call and Uittenbogaard tabled for the flopped set of aces. Martini rapped the table and mucked his hand while complimenting Uittenbogaard on his hand.
"You should have raised, I'd snap-call," Uittenbogaard added.
