Bansal Puts Marder to the Test

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

There was already about 200,000 in the main pot on a board of {q-Spades}{j-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}. Michael Marder checked to Pawaan Bansal who moved all in, covering Marder who had 136,000.

"Will you show me this time if I fold?" asked Marder to a motionless Bansal who sat in silence.

"I wasn't planning on folding," Marder said, but after thinking it over for about 30 seconds, he threw his hand into the muck. Bansal dragged in the pot and slid his hand face down to the dealer.
