The player from under-the-gun raised to 2,700 and the small blind called, as well as Mike Leah in the big blind. The dealer fanned the flop of {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}{3-Spades} and the action was checked to the preflop aggressor. He bet 3,400 and the small blind folded while Leah made the call.

The turn was the {K-Hearts} and Leah checked again. His opponent bet 11,500 and Leah just called. The river was the {4-Spades} and Leah checked for the third time. His opponent thought for a couple minutes before making a bet of 27,000. The action was back on Leah and the all-in button was placed in front of him after announcing it to the dealer.

That sent his opponent into the tank for nearly four minutes before the clock was called. He was given 30 seconds to act before his hand was dead, but he chose to fold before the time was up. Leah used a timely check-raise on the river to bully his opponent out of the pot.
