On a flop of {a-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{9-Spades} "Captain" Tom Franklin was heads up against Jaspal Brar and there was approximately 270,000 in the middle. After a couple of bets and raises Brar had 140,000 in front of him and Franklin had raised all-in.

Brar was in the tank and said, "Going to need a minute here guys."

Brar eventually folded and tabled {a-Spades}{q-Spades}. Franklin then told Brar, "For $5 I'll show you my hand."

Brar agreed and Franklin showed him the {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} and Brar pulled out the money to pay him.

Johnson Puts his Opponent in the Tank

Level 24 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

The action folded around to the hijack who raised to 70,000 and Kenneth Johnson called in the big blind.

The dealer spread a flop of {k-Spades}{9-Clubs}{8-Clubs} and Johnson check-called 85,000. The turn was the {4-Hearts} and Johnson check-called once again, this time for 160,000.

The {6-Hearts} fell on the river, Johnson asked how much his opponent had left, and after finding out it was roughly 950,000 remaining he led out for 600,000. The opponent went into the tank for about three minutes before deciding to let his hand go. Johnson said, "Good fold" as he threw his cards in the muck.
