Xu Makes Sick Hero Call on Soulier

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

We approached the table as the field was heading on break to see a bet of 89,000 sitting in front of Fabrice Soulier.

Action was on Soulier's heads-up opponent, Zinan Xu. Xu looked down at a {j-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{3-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} board and roughly 200,000 already in the pot.

After a few moments, Soulier asked for the clock, and once the floor staff arrived, they decided to give Xu and an extra moment as the pot was monstrous. A minute went by and the floor staff began a 60-second countdown.

About half way through, Xu gathered up a call and slapped it down. Soulier tabled {a-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for a busted flush draw and Xu turned over {a-Hearts}{2-Hearts}, a pair of twos.

Which was good and warranted several wows and praises from spectators who paused to catch the action.
