Mizzi Doubles Through Bianquin

We caught up with the action on a {K-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} flop. It appeared that Sorel Mizzi and Marco Bianquin got into a raising war on the flop, with Mizzi being the last to go all-in. Bianquin fell hard into the tank and eventually a fellow table-mate called the clock on him. A tourney director told him his hand would be dead after one minute. Making full use of his time, Bianquin continued to tank until the director began the 10-second countdown.

With just one second to go, Bianquin announced, "Call."

Mizzi: {K-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}
Bianquin: {2-Spades}{8-Spades}

The {J-Spades} turn and {10-Hearts} river were no help to Bianquin and he was forced to surrender the majority of his stack. Mizzi, on the other hand, doubled to 147,000.
