Frere Makes the Wrong Decision After Clock Called

There were already around 13,000 chips in the middle on a board of 8♦9♠Q♦4♦6♥ when Syzmon Politowski fired 12,500 on the river. Mallory Frere was the man with the decision and was taking such a long time that the floor were called to initiate the countdown. Before the countdown could even begin, Frere had tossed in the call.

Politowski tabled A♦5♦ for the nuts, and Frere could only muck his hand.
