Speranza's Tank Doesn't Pay Off
Niveau 5
: 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
The new blind level had already started and Gianluca Speranza was still in the think tank, more than five minutes had passed and a completed board showed 
. Mike Leah had bet 425,000 into a pot of 600,000 and Speranza eventually asked the usual question: "Will you show if I fold?" Leah didn't give any answer and another two minutes passed.
Someone called the clock, after all, and Speranza opted to call during the one minute extra time. Leah turned over 
for a full house and then said "I forgot my cards," while Speranza mucked 
. Another player remarked "it has been seven minutes, it's possible."
Speranza dropped all the way down to just 15 big blinds as a result, while Leah on his second bullet for the day jumped above the average.
