A Fifteen-Minute River Adventure Yields Dividends for Vogelsang

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

A player had checked in the big blind facing a {j-Hearts}{3-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{k-Clubs} board, and Christoph Vogelsang had a bet of 14,000 in front of him. The big blind tanked for a few minutes before check-raising to 32,000.

Vogelsang spent a few minutes in the tank himself, before electing to three-bet shove for 74,300. This sent the big blind deep into the tank, as more than six minutes passed while the big blind counted up chips, held the calling amount in his hand, and stared at Vogelsang at various points. A clock was called, but it would be two more minutes before they could arrive due to other floor decisions at other tables.

Once the clock was finally called, the countdown reached one before the big blind finally mucked his hand, awarding the pot to Vogelsang and bringing a few sighs of relief from the duo's tablemates.
