Chiovaro Makes Painful Call
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Stephen Chiovaro took a very long time considering whether he wanted to make the call of Jeremy Felicetti's all-in.
The two players had almost identical stacks, 1,030,000 for Chiovaro, 1,025,000 for Felicetti.
With the board reading A♦5♠Q♣4♥2♦, Chiovara didn't make his decision until the clock had been called and less than 10 seconds remained before his hand was to be declared dead by the tournament director.
He called.
Chiovera showed A♣2♠, having hit two pair on the river. Felicetti turned over 5♣5♥, a flopped set of fives and the winner.
