A player raised to 12,000 in the hijack and in the cutoff another player moved all in for 61,000 which saw Joao Vieira call in the small blind and the initial raiser fold.

Opponent: {a-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}
Joao Vieira: {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}

The board ran out {2-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{10-Spades} and the opponent missed his gutshot as well as his ace outs and he exited the tournament area while Joao Vieira stacked over 500,000.

The Muck: 19-Minute Tank at the WSOP Main Event Final Table

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Adrian Attenborough

With millions of dollars at stake, it's reasonable for players at the World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event final table to take their time to think when facing a difficult decision. But poker Twitter wasn't so understanding when eventual runner-up Adrian Attenborough tanked for 19 minutes in one hand before folding nothing but a pair of fours during heads-up play.

In the newest installment of The Muck, we take a look at the hand that tilted many on social media.

Attenborough, an Aussie, lost a heads-up match against Norway's Espen Jorstad with the world title on the line. During that fairly brief battle, the runner-up faced two all-in wagers from Jorstad, and both times he went into a lengthy tank with the hand often referred to as "flat tire."

On a {8-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{4-Hearts} flop Stephen Chidwick checked to Marc Macdonnell who bet 15,000. Chidwick check-raised enough to put his opponent all in and Macdonnell called.

Marc Macdonnell: {8-Spades}{7-Hearts}
Stephen Chidwick: {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}

Chidwick was ahead of the pair and straight draw of his opponent, but the turn {8-Clubs} improved Macdonnell to trip eights. The river was the {4-Spades} and Macdonnell doubled up.
