Event 15: The Ten Minute Tank

$200+30 Deep Stack No Limit Hold 'Em

We predicted a collision between Pofuk Ying and Cuong Phung and it happened after the two hands with the kings at the break.

Ying and Phung already had 350k in the pot pre-flop.  The flop came 6♣K♥2♦.  Phung bet out 125k and Ying countered going all-in.  Cuong said "Really?" and so the tank started.

With the clock running into a ten minute break, Cuong continued to ponder the situation.  At about the eight minute mark, he stood up putting more brain power into his decision.  After taking one more look at his cards and thinking for another minute, Cuong threw his cards into the muck against his rival.  

With only one minute to go in the break, the players never got a chance to get away from the table as Ying raked another 500k pot.
