It's Beer Thirty for Lesigonich
Action folded to Annette Obrestad on the button and she raised to 4,000. Brent Hanks, who was in the small blind, wasn't about to be pushed around and three-bet it to 13,300. The unassuming Thomas Lesigonich, who was sporting a Cleveland Browns hat, surprised both Obrestad and Hanks by moving all in from the big blind for 38,700.
Obrestad quickly got out of the way, but Hanks took his time before making a decision. As he was thinking a drink server returned with a beer that Lesigonich had previously order. "Just in time," Lesigonich said before tipping the waiter. Hanks eyed his opponent during this time and eventually made the call.
Lesigonich:
Hanks:
Hanks looked like he regretted it, and rightfully so as he was way behind. Fortunately for him, that regret quickly disappeared when the flop delivered him a pair of aces and the lead. Neither the turn nor river helped Lesigonich and he was eliminated in 72nd place.
"Now you can enjoy your beer," someone at the table quipped. Lesigonich did not reply.
