Jeff McMillan

Level 16 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Pierre-Paul Paulin bet 25,000 in middle position on a flop of 3♦4♠K♣. Kevin Javier called on the button.

The turn was the K♦. Both players checked it to the river which was the 7♥. Paulin checked and Javier moved all in to force Paulin to decide for his remaining amount of around 170,000.

Paulin checked the clock with the bubble looming in the distance. After about a minute he folded.

"Bad fold!" said a tablemate, who then claimed he had folded a king.
