A player in middle position opened for 17,000 and Jared Ingles made it 46,000 on the button. Ray Qartomy asked to see Ingles' big chips and counted out a raise to 140,000 before folding. The opener called quickly and 
flopped. The opener checked and Ingles bet 28,000. His opponent made it 61,000, leaving 100,000 back, and Ingles instantly ripped.
Ingles' opponent tanked for a couple of minutes and then Ingles called a clock. The player on the clock disputed it as it was for his tournament life and the supervisor agreed he could have a little more time.
"Why are you calling clock on me?" the player wondered. "Do you want me to fold?"
Moments later, he did just that.
"If I had any heart, I snap-call," he lamented. "Any heart."
