                var test = $("[id$=Hidden_Results]").val();
                var data = JSON.parse(test);
                if (data.level == 2 && data.roundCounter == 1) {

                    $(".hidden_ResultValues").fancybox().trigger('click');
                }

delay only works on subsequent items in the queqe. And your code does not qualify respecting to it.

Use setTimeout instead. 

$(".hidden_ResultValues").fancybox();

setTimeout(function() {
   $(".hidden_ResultValues").trigger('click');
}, 5000);
