Udayakumar Crippled by Ledina
Another big hand took place in the last two tables, resulting in Arravind Udayakumar being left with three big blinds.
The action started from Hogyun Kang who opened to 80,000, with Linh Tran calling from the next seat on his left. Next to act was Udayakumar who reraised to 330,000 from the small blind, and Benigno Jr Ledina was in the big blind. He tanked enough time, causing one of the players to call the clock, which prompted him to call the bet after some more deliberation.
He had 745,000 behind him, and they went heads up to the flop with Udayakumar, after folds of the first two players.
The flop came 
and Udayakumar quickly pushed the rest of his stack in the middle, slightly covering Ledina.
Ledina was struggling to make a decision, with the table calling the clock again on him. He stood up and sat down again more than three times, making the call in the end.
Ledina: 
Udayakumar: 
It took some time to Ledina to realize that he is ahead, as he said that he thought his opponent was holding nines for a full house. He started celebrating saying "Oh, i am ahead!", and the dealer brought the 
on the turn and the 
on the river to give him a crucial and big double up.
