Ospina and 'Gordo' Both Find a Pat

Level 18 : 20,000/40,000, 0 ante

Mike Gorodinsky raised and Daniel Ospina called from the big blind. Both players drew one apiece on the first draw. Ospina checked, Gorodinsky bet, and Ospina called.

The second draw once again saw both players take one and Ospina check-called another bet from Gorodinsky.

After calling the bet, Ospina demonstratively slammed his fist on the table to indicate he was pat. Gorodinsky took a little under ten seconds before standing pat behind him.

Ospina checked, Gorodinsky bet, and Ospina thought around thirty seconds before flinging his cards high up in the air.
