Deeb Makes a Big Fold
Zdenek Zizka limped in and Shaun Deeb checked his option.
On the monotone K♦2♦8♦ flop, Deeb check-called a bet of 800,000 from Zizka to the K♠ turn, where he again went into check-call mode when Zizka fired 2,400,000.
The river brought a J♥ and after Deeb checked, Zizka announced a bet of 12,000,000, leaving himself around 1,500,000 behind.
"Why are you afraid to put all the chips in the pot? That must mean you don't have it, right?" asked Deeb.
Deeb was two minutes into the the tank and Zizka hadn't moved a muscle. "You have such a skill edge over me, you're trying to 2x pot and get me to fold a king, do you even know I have a king?" added Deeb.
The rail thought Deeb was slow-rolling, but he flashed them a king to show that he wasn't. Eventually, Deeb folded and said he mucked king-five, and Zizka returned his cards to the dealer face down.
