Nível 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Action was caught on the river, with 18,000 in the pot on the 5♥8♥A♣2♥4♦ board.

The big blind, with 10,500, checked, prompting Michael Allen to put his opponent all in from the cutoff.

The big blind went deep into the tank and the clock was called. They were unable to make a decision in time and their hand was declared dead.

Allen then tabled his 9♣7♦ for nine-high which resulted in a few laughs from players at the table.
