Zanardo Bops Butters
Level 29
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Samuel Butters put in 800,000 from early position, leaving only 50,000 in chips behind. Paul Zanardo called from middle position to send the two to a flop.
Butters checked the Q♦7♦3♦ flop before Zanardo asked for his last 50,000 by sliding two green chips out. Butters tanked until the clock was called on the 50,000 chip call. With just one second remaining on his time, Butters threw in his final two green chips to go to showdown.
Samuel Butters: A♥2♥
Paul Zanardo: A♣Q♠
The J♠ turn and the 8♣ river gave the pot to Zanardo and eliminated Butters from the tournament.
