Bobro Put to the Test by Hastings
Level 15
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
With around 90,000 chips in the pot on a board of 8♥J♠7♠Q♦5♣, Brian Hastings had bet the river for 90,000 from the big blind, which out Peter Bobro in a difficult spot from under the gun.
Bobro was agonizing over the decision and was apologetic to Hasting for taking so long.
"Sorry, give me a minute," said Bobro after being in the tank for a while. He then picked up calling chips and clutched onto them for a while, dangling them over the pot, then eventually dropped them in.
Hastings then flipped 10♣5♦ for a pair of fives and a straight blocker, and a relieved Bobro flipped 8♣7♦ for two pair to win the pot.
