Shirley Ang

Level 28 : 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante

David Urban raised to 1,800,000 from the hijack and was called by Manuel O'Shea on the button and Ashi Moshe in the big blind.

The flop came , both Moshe and Urban checked. O'Shea bet 2,200,000 and only Urban called.

The turn brought them the , Urban now check-called the 7,000,000 bet of O'Shea.

The river completed the board with the . Urban checked. O'Shea then grabbed a stack of pink 500,000-value chips and then added some extra pink chips to it and put it in as a bet. Urban responded with a shove.

O'Shea thought about it for a while, then asked the dealer for a count. The dealer counted Urban's stack and he confirmed it was 22,900,000 so he had O'Shea covered. O'Shea grabbed his bet and added it back to his own stack and started counting it. He then asked how much more it was including the bet that was already added to the pot. Jason Gray, sitting on O'Shea's left, pointed out that O'Shea had grabbed his bet back. O'Shea seemed confused. So he put 12,000,000 back over the line but Gray said that O'Shea had announced 14,000,000. O'Shea seemed annoyed and asked Gray why he said that. The dealer wasn't sure either it seemed. O'Shea then folded.

The pot and the last bet of O'Shea were pushed towards Urban. Urban then pointed out that O'Shea should at least pay a timebank card for the time it took for O'Shea to take a decision. There was a little bit of a discussion but in the end, O'Shea gave up one card.
