Doug Polk was sitting in his backward chair getting a massage and not one part of his body was moving. Polk had made a river bet of 25,000 into a pot of 70,000. The board read {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} and the action was on Justin Bonomo in the big blind. Bonomo made the call Adrian Mateos sat in the cutoff pondering his decision.

After throwing in a time extension, Mateos was granted an extra 60 seconds to act. He eventually also made the call and Polk finally moved to turn over his {a-Spades}{9-Spades}. Both Bonomo and Mateos mucked their hands and Polk scooped the pot all to himself.
