Held Over Two Million After Confusion Turns to Huge Pot
Konstantin Held opened in early position to 25,000 and was three-bet by Pedro Pereira Fonseca to his immediate left. Held called and a pot that would become huge was brewing.
On the 
flop, Held checked and Fonseca bet 50,000. Held then check-raised to 175,000 which sent Fonseca into the tank.
After taking a bit of time, Fonseca said "call," which Held mistook as "all-in" and flicked a chip forward, signifying his intent to call had it been an all-in bet. The dealer corrected Held, letting him know that it was just a call and the hand proceeded with both players a bit bewildered on how to proceed.
The dealer put the 
on the board for the turn and Held said in an 'I guess so' kind of manner, "all-in".
Fonseca now went back into the tank trying to decipher what to do with his final 385,000 chips. After using his final two time banks, he shook his head a final time and called.
Held showed 
for a flopped set, and Fonseca showed 
for a flopped top pair which had become top two pair following the confusion.
The river was the 
that sealed Fonseca's fate in a strange but massive pot that has Held now over 2,000,000 chips.
