Hudon Stalls, Busts, Gets Pay Jump
Level 28
: 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Arkadi Onikoul raised to 275,000 from the button and Eliot Hudon tanked for quite a while from the big blind. After about 4-5 minutes, Jack Oliver apparently asked him if he was planning to do this for every hand until the pay jump. It seems that he admitted that and the dealer called the floor over. The dealer explained the situation and then gave Hudon ten seconds to decide.
When someone pointed out that there were only 63 players left and that he had a pay jump already, he three-bet to 845,000, keeping 75,000 behind. Onikoul four-bet jammed for Hudon to make the call.
Eliot Hudon: 
Arkadi Onikoul: 
The board ran out 
for Onikoul to flop top pair to eliminate Hudon in 63rd place.
