Wong's Big Fold

[user75032]

It took Danny Wong six full minutes to make the fold, but he made what seemed to be a huge one against Jazzar Mamoun. The two engaged in a pre-flop raising war, putting 20,000 total chips in the middle before Mamoun raised another 15,000 on top. Wong tanked for about a minute and then called with position.

The flop was jack-high and ragged, {2-Hearts} {j-Diamonds} {7-Clubs}. Mamoun quickly bet enough to put Wong all in, sending Wong deep into the tank. He seemed positively agonized by his decision.

After five minutes without action, Felix Osterland finally said, "I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to call a clock." A floor was summoned to the table. With fifteen seconds left on the floor's countdown, Wong finally folded. Mamoun rewarded him by showing {A-Diamonds} {A-Clubs}.
