Pocket Rockets Engage in a Long Duel

Level 6 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

There was already a huge pot of about 115,000 in the middle as Brock Wilson from early position and Shannon Shorr on his immediate left saw a flop of {4-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{q-Spades}. Wilson led for 23,000 and Shorr called.

The turn was the {2-Hearts}. Wilson bet again, this time for 32,000 and was called again.

The river came the {8-Spades}. Wilson fired a third time for 67,000. Shorr raised all in, as he had Wilson covered. Wilson only had about 25,000 behind but went into the tank, seemingly tortured by the decision. He thought for over a minute before he called.

Shorr tabled the {a-Hearts}{a-Spades} and Wilson turned over the {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds} in relief for the chop pot.

There was some discussion at the table from the other players at the length of time it took Wilson to call. "He is never bluffing there" said Wilson as he took in his half of the pot.
