Corront Out During the Dinner Break
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
All tables were empty already but one as "SM" and Merwan Corront tangled in a larger pot to the 6♠2♦2♥10♦ turn. Some 95,000 were in the middle and SM moved all-in with the slightly covering stack. Corront had around 60,000 behind and went deep into the tank, investing multiple time bank extensions while actively chatting with his opponent.
"Can you beat a six?" SM eventually asked and Corront needed another minute before he called.
Merwan Corront: A♣J♠ 
SM: Q♠10♠
No ace or jack but the 3♦ fell on the river and Corront was eliminated - seven minutes into the ongoing dinner break.
