Gold Still Glimmering; Chop Chop on the Pay Jump
Jamie Gold was seen winning a small pot blind vs blind when he check-raised a Q♥6♦5♣ board, Gold showed top two pair to Alejandro Herrera after he folded.
A Few Hands Later:
There was a slight mix up when Alejandro Herrera three-bet Sanghoon Choi to 200,000 with about 30,000 behind. Choi declared a call, thinking he was all in and tabled his Ace-Queen but quickly realized what was happening and turned it over. It's unclear if Herrera saw the revealed hand.
The table drew attention to the pay jump and told Choi to take his time when the 4♥5♣2♣ hit the flop. Herrera took a little time to check the flop and after a few moments, Choi slid forward a bet that covered Herrera's chip behind.
"I won't call the clock," Cho said and one of his tablemates told him he could have tanked longer.
Herrera took a minute before shrugging and putting his chips in as a call.
Alejandro Herrera: A♠K♣ 
Sanghoon Choi: A♣Q♦
The turn made the whole interaction a moot point when the 3♠ snapped off and the board completed with the 5♥.
