The Right to be a Dick
Action folded to Frederik Jensen in the small blind. He had his 5,000 small blind and slid a 100,000 stack forward.
Gaelle Baumann in the big blind instantly said call and turned her hand over, thinking the 105,000 bet covered her. The dealer immediately stopped her of showing and said it wasn't an all in yet. Jensen thought he had seen Baumann's hand though, her was visible for a good full second before she took 'em back.
The tournament director got involved and ruled that the bet of 105,000 stood, and Baumann's call as well. Baumann had 10,000 behind and the dealer burned and spread a flop: .
Jensen checked and Baumann shoved her last 10,000 in.
Jensen didn't do anything yet. Karlic thought he was joking and said "You know the clock is running right?", "Yeah but I have a decision" Jensen replied.
Karlic rolled his eyes and after about a minute longer, he called the clock on Jensen.
The tournament director didn't start the countdown yet, but still Jensen wasn't happy with Karlic's decision to call the clock. Jensen said he had a real decision for the second time and said he was doing the math. "You have the right to think, I have the right to call the clock" Karlic said.
Jensen looked at the tournament director. "He has the right to call it" tournament director Christian Scalzi said. "He has the right to be a dick" Jensen replied.
Still no countdown yet. After half a minute more, Jensen open folded his and Baumann mucked her aces.
