Koon Plugs a Leak

Connor Richards

Level 12 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Jason Koon needed a quick bathroom break and opted to use a time bank from early position as the table agreed to slow the action.

Thirty seconds later, Koon's hand was killed and Mathew Frankland took some time before opening to 60,000. The rest of the table took their time folding and Koon made it back just as the blinds were folding.

"Best use of a time bank in my career!" Koon said.

Level 12 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

On a board of A♦J♠8♣4♠, David Peters and Alexandre Reard each committed 300,000 apiece on the turn. The river was the 9♠ and Peters started with a check. Reard pushed out a bet of 775,000 and Peters dipped into the tank.

After burning through three time banks, Peters flicked in a chip to call. Reard turned over 10♠6♠ for a flush and Peters was forced to count out a healthy portion of his stack.

Mikita Badziakouski opened to 60,000 second to act before Alexandros Theologis jammed for 605,000 from the button. Leon Sturm called off his stack of 335,000 from the small blind and Badziakouski also committed the last of his stack, which was around 340,000.
