Team Polychronopoulos Tanks Three Minutes; Makes Right Decision

Level 3 : 200/300, 300 ante
Athanasios Polychronopoulos
Athanasios Polychronopoulos

A player limped in early position before Athanasios Polychronopoulos of Team Polychronopoulos raised to 1,500 in the hijack. The button, big blind and limper all made the call.

The flop came {10-Spades}{9-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} and the big blind jammed quickly. The original limper asked for a count and after hearing it was 11,200 he tossed his cards into the muck. Polychronopoulos went deep into the tank for about three minutes before making the call for 11,100. The button snap-folded and both hands were tabled.

Team Polychronopoulos: {q-Clubs}{q-Hearts}
Big blind: {j-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

The big blind had flopped a pair of nines but was behind Polychronopoulos' pair of queens. The {5-Clubs} hit the turn and the {10-Clubs} landed on the river for Polychronopoulos to double and leave his opponent just with 100 in chips.
