Nice Call for Dan Frank

Dan Frank

Dan Frank got involved in a three-way raised pot in the big blind. The flop came {a-Spades}{5-Clubs}{2-Spades}, and all three players checked. Frank checked again after the {4-Diamonds} turn, and the player in middle position checked behind. The button took a 5,000-chip stab at it, and Frank called. The third player folded, and on to the {9-Diamonds} river. Frank checked a third street, and his opponent fired 10,000.

Frank looked like he was going to make a quick call, then hesitated. "How much you playing?" The other guy had about 20,000 behind. Then Frank seemed like he was contemplating a fold. Two minutes into his thought process, Frank asked his opponent if he'd show if he folded. No response other than a toothy grin. Another minute went by, and Frank announced a call without putting any chips forward. He just knew is read was correct.

"Nice call," said his opponent, trying to get out of having to show without releasing his cards. The dealer made him turn over {q-Spades}{10-Spades} for a missed flush draw. "Yes!" Frank cheered. "Sixes!" He tabled {6-Clubs}{6-Spades}, giving a fist pump as he jumped out of his chair.

Frank busted a player on the next hand and is now up to 88,000.
