We picked the action up on the turn when the board read when Ludovic Geilich checked to Frederik Jensen. The two were engaged in a blind battle, and Jensen bet 40,000 from the big blind. Geilich made the call and checked again on the river when the popped up.
Jensen tanked for quite some time before he eventually bet 80,000.
"All in," Geilich said, after just five seconds had passed.
"Why didn't I just check behind," Jensen sighed.
Thirty quiet seconds went by before Jensen decided to fold, and Geilich showed for complete air.
"I may have had the best hand," Geilich teased Jensen, who tapped the table and shook his head.
"You're giving a demonstration, it's nice to see," Govert Metaal said, as he went on to express how impressed he was with Geilich's play today.
Geilich's up to 675,000 chips now and it seems like he's in full control of his table.
