Chiu Needs Some Time
Michael Duek raised from the hijack for 40,000 and Charlie Chiu was the only one to make the call from the big blind. The flop fanned out 9♠8♠10♣ and Chiu check-raised a 40,000 continuation bet from Duek to 150,000. Duek put in the extra chips and the pair saw the J♣ turn being dealt.
Chiu reverted to a check and Duek took the opportunity to bet for 300,000 chips. Chiu called, and the 2♠ river rolled off.
Chiu checked again, and Duek doubled his bet to 600,000. This sent Chiu into a tank that lasted several minutes, apologizing to his tablemates a few times while he thought things over.
Eventually, he settled on a fold, granting the pot to Duek. "It's really, really close," Chiu concluded.
