Slobodskoy Calls the Clock
Level 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
With over 300,000 in the middle, the board read 8♣6♥2♠6♦Q♣ and Naor Slobodskoy jammed for 75,000. Axel Hallay went deep into the tank, apologizing for taking so long after a couple of minutes.
"Take your time," said Ryan Riess who was at the table as the bubble is approaching quickly.
"I won't call the clock," said another tablemate. However, Slobodskoy had other plans, as he called the clock immediately after.
The floor was called over and gave Hallay 30 seconds to make a decision. As he started to count down the last five seconds, Hallay dropped a chip to make the call.
Slobodskoy tabled 7♦6♣ for trip sixes and Hallay exploded with disappointment, saying "I knew it," showing the 5♥5♣.
