Trip Kings Ain't Enough!
Patrik Antonius opened to 27,000 only to have Sorel Mizzi three-bet to 71,000 from the button to put the action back on Antonius.
"How much you playing?" asked Antonius to Mizzi, and he he responded by saying, "900 or so."
After a few moments of deliberation, Antonius made the call and checked the flop as Mizzi pushed out a 110,000-chip continuation-bet.
A stone-face Antonius shuffled his chips for nearly ninety seconds before sliding in the allotted amount of chips to make the call as both players checked the on the turn.
With the dealer dropping the on the river, Antonius took his full measure of time - roughly another ninety seconds - before tapping the table just once as Mizzi quickly checked behind.
The dealer announced trip kings when Mizzi tabled his hand (that wasn't shown clear enough on the TV screens), but it would be Antonius' that would see him collect the pot and climb to 1,520,000 as Mizzi slipped to 750,000.
"I was thinking why couldn't the river be an off-suit king you know!" announced Mizzi the following hand.
