Speranza Gets Away From One

Level 5 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Action was heads up with around 25,000 in the pot and {6-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{7-Spades} on the board. Jesse Lonis checked from early position and Gianluca Speranza bet 8,000. Lonis raised to 28,000 and Speranza called.

The turn was {6-Hearts} and Lonis continued for 29,000. Speranza called once again and the river was {3-Diamonds}.

Lonis fired 65,000 on the river and Speranza went deep into the tank. After considering his options for several minutes, another player at the table called the clock. The tournament director arrived and Speranza waited the full 30 seconds before he finally tossed his hand in the muck to give up the pot.
