Baumstein Can't Fade Huge Flop
We got to the table as Scott Baumstein was tanking over an all in move of 31,300 from his opponent. We don't know how much Baumstein originally raised, but we estimated that there was about 16,000 in the pot.
We were only there for about 30 seconds when someone called the clock. We aren't sure how long Baumstein was tanking in total, but he seemed very shocked and upset about the decision. Regardless, the floor was called over, and when the dealer said that Baumstein had enough time, the clock started. Baumstein took only about 15 seconds to call, and it was a good call.

It was a monster flop for Baumstein's opponent, coming down 
. Baumstein would have to fade an eight, seven, six, or spade to win the hand, but the 
on the turn ended things. The meaningless river was the 
, and Baumstein was knocked down to 60,000.
