Filipovic Puts an Opponent To the Test

There was around 27,000 in the middle from preflop action on a board of with heads-up action between Goran Filipovic, who was in the hijack, and his opponent in the small blind.

The small blind had 35,000 in front of him and was facing a decision for his remaining 107,000 as Filipovic had shoved over the top. The small blind went into the tank for over two minutes, resulting in Filipovic calling a clock on the player.

After the floor came and confirmed with the dealer that the small blind had had sufficient enough time to think, a 30-second timer was on. With 10 seconds left, the player flung his cards from the three-seat to the muck pile that was near the center of the table, giving up contention of the pot and choosing to fight another hand (or day).
