Swift Tanks and Folds

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Pierre Calamusa raised to 2,400 from the under-the-gun position and was called by the player in late position, the cutoff and David Swift in the small blind.

They all checked through the {a-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{a-Spades} on the flop to the {j-Hearts} on the turn which they also checked. The {5-Hearts} on the river completed the board.

Swift bet 15,000 and Calamusa and the player in the late position both folded. The player in the cutoff raised to 40,000 which sent Swift deep into the tank. After about five minutes, the clock was called on him and the floor came over to give him 30 seconds to take a decision. After 25 seconds, the floor started counting down and Swift reluctantly open-folded {Q-}{Q-}.
