Career Counseling at Table #62

With about 120,000 in the pot and a flop of {5-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{6-Spades}, Andy Black bet 80,000, and Lex "RaSZi" Veldhuis raised to 500,000. To call the bet would mean committing the rest of his stack, so Black took his time about it.

Finally, Veldhuis began talking. "You're a live player, I'm an internet player," Veldhuis began. "You've been tanking for three minutes.... If you don't know where you're at by now, you should change careers."

Black finally mucked, preserving his remaining 300,000 chips. Veldhuis has about 1.5 million.
