Cristea Clocks Himself
Level 6
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Sebastian Ionita and Valentin Cristea were heads-up on a board of 8♠A♦J♥9♣ when Ionita bet 9,500 from under the gun. Cristea called in the small blind.
The river came the 6♦ and Ionita put in 30,500 this time. Cristea tanked for about a minute before asking the table to call the clock on him. The countdown had just begun when he slid his cards into the middle and Ionita picked up the pot.
