Jachtmann Puts Berko In the Tank, on the Clock
Level 28
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
The action was picked up in a pot of roughly 2,000,000 on a flop showing K♥10♦8♦. Scott Berko fired for 500,000 from the small blind and Jan-Peter Jachtmann slid out a raise to 2,000,000.
"I'm going to be awhile guys," Berko said as he crawled deep into the tank. After close to four minutes, Jachtmann called the clock on Berko, who then had 30 seconds to act.
As the clock ticked down, Berko made the fold with a few seconds left and Jachtmann scooped the large pot to bring his stack over 10 million.
Things got heated at the table between Jachtmann and Berko, who continued to argue after the hand about when a reasonable amount of time is to call the clock.
