Percic Doubles After Tanking for Pay Jump
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
In the last hand of the previous level, Jens-Florian Mueller raised to 35,000 from the hijack and Darko Percic three-bet to 165,000 from the cutoff, leaving a single T-5,000 chip behind.
The action folded back to Mueller, who made the call before putting in the last chip himself on the J♥5♦K♦ flop. Percic then went on to tank for several minutes before the clock was called.
After an additional 30 seconds, Percic tossed in his final chip for a showdown.
Darko Percic: A♦J♣
Jens-Florian Mueller: A♥9♣
Pecic's pair did not encounter any danger on the K♣J♦ runout, even improving him to a full house, and he finally raked in his double-up.
