Spataru and Tekel Play a Slow Pot
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
There were already around 75,000 chips in the pot on a full board of 2♦Q♦7♣K♥5♥ when Andrei Spataru checked it over to Andrej Tekel, who was deciding how to proceed. After a long time thinking, Tekel finally put out a bet of 16,000, just as a player at the table called the clock.
Spataru didn't need to wait so long to make a decision, and almost immediately called. Tekel then flipped A♠K♦ for top pair, and Spataru mucked.
"What took you so long?" said one of the table.
"Sorry, next time I will try to be faster," replied Tekel.
