Gunes Rockets to the Chip Lead Without Seeing a Flop
Level 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Caner Gunes and Konstantin Voronin engaged in a pre-flop raising war that saw Voronin put in 460,000 in the small blind. Gunes then moved all in from the cutoff.
Voronin asked for a count as he went deep into the tank. Tablemate Omar Lakhdari eventually called the clock, but the rest of the table protested that the dealer had spent most of the time counting Gunes' massive stack.
Voronin was given more time as he considered the decision for his last 630,000. He ended up folding as Gunes took the pot, climbing up near 2,000,000.
"Good fold," Gunes told him.
"Good bluff," Voronin replied.
