Vedes Calls, Calls, Calls and Calls to Winner

Tommy Vedes never once made an aggressive action in a pot against Warren Zackey and still wound up winning the pot. Warren Zackey opened for 350,000 preflop, 550,000 on the flop, and 1.2 million on the turn. Each time Vedes just called.

At the river, the board showed {3-Hearts}

. Zackey softly called the amount of his bet as "1.8" and then slid out, one at a time, three stacks of twenty green (25,000) chips and three Hawaiian Flowers (100,000). Vedes didn't hear the bet declaration and immediately called for a string bet.

A floor was summoned to the table. He listened to his dealer say that she had heard Zackey declare 1.8 million, and Jonathan Tamayo also piped up that he heard the same. Zackey's bet was allowed to stand. Vedes called anyway and won the pot with {10-Spades}
