The board read 6♠9♥5♠K♣ on Table 4, with 20,000 in the middle. Xiantong Li checked it over to Mateusz Perkowski who bet 8,000. Li then decided to raise to 16,000. This concerned Perkowski, as he threw in a 30-second time bank chip, contemplating his decision. Eventually, he made the call.
On the river Q♥, Li now was the one buying 30 seconds extra before firing a hefty 78,000 bet. As Perkowski leaned back in his chair thinking the hand over, a big “Woah!” roared in Dusk Till Dawn, as suspense grew in the England-Albania soccer game.
Eventually, Perkowski folded, Li’s stack grew, and England went to half-time, leading Albania one to nothing.
Xiantong Li: 295,000
Mateusz Perkowski: 60,000
