Allis Digs Deep to Make a Call
Action picked up on the turn, which showed a board of Q?3?K?10? and a pot with a little more than 30,000.
WSOP bracelet winner Mike Allis was on the button and he faced competition from a player under the gun.
The dealer fanned 5? on the river, and the player in early position led out with a 11,500 bet.
��Is that 11,500 again?�� Allis asked.
The dealer confirmed the amount and Allis immediately went in the blender. He briefly stared at his opponent before studying the board.
Allis counted out chips from his stack, setting aside the 11,500 it would cost to call, and then looked at what he would have left. Allis appeared uneasy, sitting up in his chair and leaning forward once again to look at his opponent.
After almost a full minute elapsed, Allis reached down to his chips, picked up the 11,500 stack and placed them on the table for a call and tabled K?J?.
What his opponent had won��t be known. The player in early position saw Allis�� hand, picked up his own cards to look, and then mucked them face down.
��Thank you,�� Allis said to the dealer, as the pot was pushed his way.
