Alilovic Takes Time Before Paying Off Zagar

Level 14
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Christian Alilovic open-raised to 6,000 from middle position and Vid Zagar three-bet to 18,000, which Alilovic called.
The flop came 5♣7♥A♣ and Alilovic checked. Zagar made it 10,000 to go and Aliliovic check-raised to 25,000. Zagar made the call and action went to the turn, which was the 9♦. Alilovic gently placed out a bet of 28,000, but Zagar ramped up the aggression by shoving all in for 61,500.
Alilovic went into the tank for several minutes and the floor had to be called for time. As the final seconds trickled away, Alilovic finally made the call and tabled 10♦10♣. Zagar had A♦J♦ and was way ahead.
The river came the 5♠ and Zagar held to win the pot, doubling his stack.
