Atallah Bets the River, Clock Called on Zhaparov
Level 25
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
With around 500,000 in the pot on a board of Q♠J♠J♥A♣, Michel Atallah bet 225,000 from the small blind and Dauren Zhaparov called on the button.
The river came the 9♥ and Atallah bet another 425,000. Zhaparov then tanked for nearly five minutes until the clock was finally called.
He allowed the countdown to get within the final 10 seconds before sliding his cards back to the dealer.
