Weisner and Ignat Play Longest Hand In History
OK, the title is a little misleading but Melanie Weisner and Liviu Ignat have just been in a hand that took almost 10 minutes to complete, despite the fact it never got past the turn!
Weisner opened on the button with a raise to 5,600 and Ignat considered his options for at least 90 seconds before making a raise to 14,600. Another minute and a half thinking time and Weisner called.
Flop: 
- Ignat sat riffling his chips for a minute or so before betting 13,600, sending Weisner into the tank. She was staring at her opponent intensely, hoping to get some sort of read, eventually making the call.
Turn: 
- Again, the methodical Ignat sat for more than two minutes, with Weisner still staring at him through her hair, before betting exactly 30,000 chips. At this point the Pink Panther music sounded indicating it was the end of level 13. Most of the table left for a break, meaning they missed the pretty black and purple pattern created by Weisner's chip riffling. They also missed the four minutes of sitting there waiting for her to act. Eventually she did act, she folded.
"Come on! Show me one time!" pleaded Weisner.
"You can choose one," offered Ignat, at which point Weisner flipped a single card over to reveal the 
"Nice hand," she said before asking literally dozens of questions regarding Ignat's hand strength. If only she played as fast as she talked!
