Lie Takes it Down

Level 27 : 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Aylar Lie

Action was picked up on the river, which completed the {k-Spades}{q-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{j-Clubs} board. There was about 1,100,000 already in the pot. Konstantinos Tsikopoulos fired for 425,000 before Aylar Lie moved all in for 1,410,000.

Tsikopoulos went into the tank for several minutes, albeit not without warning. "Sorry guys, this is gonna take a minute," he told the table after Lie's shove. Tsikopoulos was in visible shock at the jam, seeming to be perplexed as to what his right move would be.

"You said I have your number, she has mine," he said to Sarah Wasch, sitting to his right.

"At least you're human," she responded.

Tsikopoulos was not doing a particularly good job of covering his hole cards, and the player to his left conspicuously leaned over and saw them. Another player across the table, Jordan Winn, pointed this out to Tsikopoulos, who was unaffected by this information.

A minute or two later, Winn called the clock on Tsikopoulos, to which he told him it was not necessary, and he made the laydown, tossing his cards into the muck. Winn asked the player who had seen Tsikopoulos' hole cards to share what they were. He remained quiet. The floor had just arrived following the call for the clock, and Winn and the table explained the situation to the floor person, who said that since one player saw them, the information must be shared with the table. Tsikopoulos obliged without objection, stating that he folded a straight, having held {a-}{10-Hearts}.

"That's sick if you made that bluff," Tsikopoulos told Lie, who said nothing, but sat that with a big smile on her face.

Several minutes later, the table was still discussing the hand, with Jeremy Ausmus remarking that it had to have been at least 10 minutes in its totality.
