Galiana's Triple Barrel Bluff Gets Through After Ten-Minute Tank From Normand
Antonio Galiana limped in with 6♠2♥ on the button and Frederic Normand checked with 4♥3♣ from the big blind.
The flop came 7♥A♣4♠ and Normand check-called a bet of 400,000 from Galiana to the 8♦ turn, where Normand checked and Galiana fired 2,100,000. Normand stuck around with a call.
A J♠ hit the river and Normand tapped the table again. Galiana, with just six-high, announced a bet of 5,500,000. Normand had the best hand with his pair of fours, but couldn't make a decision as he was still in the tank after around five minutes.
"I don't know what to do," said Normand as he exhaled.
Another five minutes passed and Galiana called the clock, putting Normand on a countdown. Eventually, Normand did lay it down, allowing Galiana to breathe a sigh of relief and almost even out the stacks.
