The first big pot we've witnessed in a while seemed to emerge from nowhere. Luke Marsh raised it up to 31,000 in the small blind and Billy Defty announced 100,000. But as Defty was about to slide his chips across the line, Marsh had immediately replied with an all-in delcaration. Defty hesitated, and you could almost see him thinking "Is there any chance I can keep these?" But in the 100,000 went, and the decision was back on the shorter of the two stacks.
"Big difference between third and second," he said as he looked down at his now 340,00 stack. "Sorry mate, I gotta think this one through."
"Tens?" he probed. "Jacks?" He received no response whatsoever.
As he continued to dwell, Marsh took a sip of his orange juice and placed it down on the table the other side of him. A tell perhaps? Does he noramlly put his Um Bongo back on the same table? Or just me being a baffoon?
Either way, Defty made the fold, showing
face up in the process.
