A few moments ago the quiet pattern was interrupted when Kamutzki opened for 43,000 from the cutoff, then Katz moved all in for 437,000. The blinds folded and Kamutzki gave his man a look, a smile, and then let it go

Michael Katz opened on the button for 32,000 and when Ryan Welch folded his small blind Dan Smith moved all in from the big blind.
Katz seemed taken by surprise and wasn’t sure what to do, but indicated to Smith that he was close to calling, “Stand by for an update.” Katz told him.
Indecision was written across Katz’s face as he grabbed a stack of calling chips and seemed on the verge of putting them down. After a few minutes of this Smith called “Time.” The floor gave Katz a minute to make his decision and with eight seconds to go he folded his hand.
