Let The Coin Decide

[user162117]

When John Waterman moved all-in from the big blind over the top of a raise from Carl Knox on the button there was a big decision for Knox to make. Waterman had Knox covered and should he call he might be heading home in 4th place.

Knox looked like he was in pain as he contemplated the call. After a couple of minutes, Knox could be seen picking up a coin and proceeding to flip it, seemingly leaving his tournament life to chance. It is interesting to note that at last year's ANZPT Queenstown event, the eventual winner Julian Cohen would flip a coin twice on that final table when he was faced with tough decisions.

Apparently the coin decided Knox would fold, as he put it back on the table next to him and flung his cards into the muck.
