Ben Yu Earns $50 from Martin Zamani … and Takes the Chip Lead
On a board reading [KcJcJd3sTd] with around 250,000 in the middle, Martin Zamani bet out 160,000 from the big blind.
From the button, Ben Yu cut out a raise to 425,000 and Zamani immediately went into the tank.
“I nearly checked. I always check here,” Zamani said.
“There’s no chance you’re bluffing,” utters Zamani.
“Like, unless this was a sick ICM play,” Zamani continued.
Zamani eventually uses his last two 60-second time extension banks, and when his final 60-seconds expires, his hand is dead.
“How much to show? Like do I have to owe you hands, or do you want real money?” asked Zamani to Yu.
Yu pauses for a few moments and then says, “$50?”
“Ok,” Zamani responds and Yu tables his [TsTh] for a full house.
“Did you have queen-nine?” asks Petrangelo.
“No I had a jack. Jack-nine,” responded Zamani.
