Poker Vov Pop: Tim "Tmay420" West

On the last hand of the level we witnessed Tim "Tmay420" West three-betting his button to 13,200 following an early position raise of 3,500. Once the action passed round to the preflop raiser, he moved all in for 45,400 and West made the call.

West tabled his {Q-Clubs}{Q-Spades} straight away, but his opponent would pause, look up at West's hand and then table his {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs} as a few of the players on the table uttered a few words they may have had the word slow... in it.

The board ran out {8-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{3-Spades}{A-Spades}{4-Spades} to see West ship a few stack of chips over to his opponent while slipping to roughly 74,000. His opponent and another player on the table got into a slightly heated argument about one of them being called "a piece of shit", but the Tournament Director on duty didn't issue any penalty. West however - although a little frustrated - happily partook in the next instalment of the Poker Vox Pop.
