Ayres' Tanking Works in His Favor
Level 4
: 100/200, 25 ante
On a board reading 
, Mark Wagstaff bet 1,800 from the big blind and Stephen Ayres was pondering his options, and boy did he ponder. Three minutes passed by before he raised to 4,500 and Wagstaff called.
Wagstaff then checked the 
river and Ayres went into the tank again. After two minutes he asked the dealer to spread the pot, which he did, and Ayres sat considering his move for an addition minute or so, whcih made Wagstaff laugh. Eventually, Ayres reached for chips, but didn't need to because Wagstaff mucked before Ayres had even bet.
