Matire Bets Big

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

The board read {6-Spades}{a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{8-Spades} with around 63,000 in the middle.

John Forsman had checked in the early position and Potito Martire had bet 44,800 in the mid-position. Forsman had dived deep into the tank while trying to figure out what to do. The clock was called on him by another player on the table and the floor came over. The dealer explained the situation and the floor gave Forsman 30 seconds to take the decision.

After twenty-five seconds, the floor started counting down and declared Forsman's hand dead. Forsman slowly pushed his cards over the line to see the pot being awarded to Martire.
