Corey Wade raises from the hijack to 75,000, Albert Tapia calls from the cutoff, Chase Davis calls from the button, and Chuc Nguyen reraises from the big blind to 300,000.

Wade folds, Tapia calls, and Davis uses one of his Time Chips to tank for nearly a minute before he folds.

The flop comes Spade KDiamond 10Club 4, Nguyen bets 265,000, and Tapia quickly moves all in for more than 2,000,000.

Nguyen uses all five of his Time Chips to tank for nearly three minutes, at one point asking, “Shoving with queen-jack suited?”

Eventually, Nguyen folds, and Tapia lets him off the hook by revealing his Heart KHeart 10 for top two pair.

Albert Tapia  –  3,300,000  (110 bb)
Chuc Nguyen  –  925,000  (31 bb)
