Slater Flops a Set, Gimenez Calls River Shove With Five Seconds Remaining
Level 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
There were already over 100,000 chips in the middle on a full board of 10♥3♠7♦5♣K♣ when Artus Gimenez had bet 65,000 on the river, and Nathan Slater shoved for around 180,000.
Gimenez was in the tank for quite some time, so long in fact that the floor were called to initiate a countdown. With five seconds remaining until his hand would be declared dead, Gimenez called.
Slater then flipped over a set with 3♦3♣, and Gimenez showed K♠J♠ for a pair of kings.
"You're flopping sets so often, you are," said Gimenez to Slater.
