Shushan Going Through the Ringer
There was a three-way pot in progress on the river with a pot of about 245,000 in the middle. From early position, Francisco Perez Moreno bet 225,000.
Yaniv Shushan was on the button and tanked for a long time while he assessed the bet. Eventually the clock was called. The floor came over to count it down and with 1 second left, he spiked in the call.
But the hand was far from over as Kuan-Yu Lin was still to act from the big blind. He quickly jammed all in to which Shushan got up and clapped his hands in anger. Moreno quickly folded and action was straight back on Shushan who now had to decide for his remaining 240,000. It was time for another long tank as this time it was a decision for his tournament life. He took close to 5 minutes before releasing his cards. Lin did not show.
A couple hands later Shushan was all in with the A?K? against the A?K?. Despite having the suited advantage the flop came with two hearts and the turn a heart as well to make for a major sweat. The river was a club to spare Shushan as he breathed a sigh of relief.
"My man is going through the ringer over here!" said a tablemate in reference to Shushan's double long tank and the near brutal elimination in the span of a rough 20 minute stretch for him.
