Cimbolas Makes Correct Call in the Nic of Time
Level 8
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
With roughly 300,000 in the middle on the completed board of 8♦6♣5♠A♣10♣, Daniel Neilson fired a bet of 323,000 from the big blind. Matas Cimbolas was in early position and went deep into the tank. After a couple of minutes, the clock was called.
When the floor arrived he let Cimbolas know that he had 30 seconds to act or his hand would be declared dead. As the floor counted down from five, he reached one and Cimbolas splashed chips across the line to make the call.
Neilson rolled over J♠4♠ for jack-high, and Cimbolas tabled A♥Q♣ to drag the pot with top pair.
