Ibrahim Naim Puts Phillip Hollederer in the Tank

Nov 29, 2023

On a heads-up turn of Heart 8Heart 10Diamond 2Spade 7, Phillip Hollederer checks, Ibrahim Naim bets 37,000, and Hollederer calls. 

The river falls the Heart K and Hollederer checks, Naim bets 100,000, and Hollederer goes deep into the tank. 

Several long minutes go by as Hollederer thinks long and hard about his decision, eventually calling the clock on himself and is given a thirty-second countdown. 

As the clock reaches zero, Hollederer tosses out a chip to make the call but is then shown Club JDiamond 9 by Naim for a turned straight and he mucks his cards after a brief hand funeral. 

Naim is then pushed the sizeable pot to boost him to the top of the chip counts with 630,000. 

Ibrahim Naim – 630,000 (79 bb)
Phillip Hollederer – 140,000 (18 bb)
