Apter Makes the Right Call For a Double
Level 21
: 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Brett Apter bet 130,000 into a pot of 200,000 on a 
board from the hijack, and Austin Tjaden jammed to put Apter at risk for his 605,000 chip stack. Apter tanked for a few minutes, then a clock was called. With just a few seconds left on the clock, Apter called.
Brett Apter: 
Austin Tjaden: 
Apter was ahead with top pair, top kicker, but was looking to fade the straight and flush draws of Tjaden. The 
was safe for Apter, and the WSOP Bracelet winner doubled up.
