Around 25,000 is in the pot when a player on the button moves all in for 15,000 on a flop of Club KClub JHeart 5. Daniel Watton is in the small blind and tanks for several minutes before the clock is called.

He eventually puts in the chips and turns over Heart 10Diamond 10, while his opponent has Heart QHeart 3. The Heart 8 turn and Club 4 river keep Watton in the lead and sends his opponent to the rail.

“What are you waiting for?” a tablemate says to Watton after the hand.

“Every time I tank. I’m a super nit. I could’ve had three kings there,” Watton replies.
