Keating Sends Perez Into Tank in Long Hand
Action was joined on the flop with the board reading A♣K♠10♠. From the hijack, Alex Keating bet 70,000. Roberto Perez raised to 170,000 from middle position, Keating called, with each action taking at least two minutes.
The turn was the 4♥. Both players checked.
The river came the 8♠. Perez thought for a full minute before leading for 275,000. Keating thought for a couple of minutes himself before jamming all in.
Perez leaned back and prepared for a long tank as his remaining amount of about 875,000 was at stake. He shifted in his chair a few times as the table around watched as well with their table also in the midst of a big river decision hand. With the cameras on him, Perez finally laid it down after a 5 minute and 22 second tank (per the tourney clock at start of decision).
Keating held on to his cards for a while as he contemplated whether to show or not, and eventually slid them into the muck face down as his holding remained a mystery.
