Zarco Bombs the River
Level 20
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
The action was caught in a blind versus blind confrontation with two players looking at a full board of 9♦2♦4♠Q♦5♥, with around 210,000 in the middle.
Javier Zarco, in the small blind, bet out for a sizable 205,000, sending Miguel Lopes, in the big blind, deep into the tank.
Lopes thought for so long that a neutral player at the table called the clock. Upon the start of Lopes' thirty-second countdown, he tossed his cards to the muck.
