Forrest's Time Expires in a Big Pot
The last hand before the break saw a big pot emerge between Ted Forrest and Justin Bonomo. Forrest bet-called on fourth street and Bonomo fired on each of the following streets. Forrest called on fifh and sixth, but paused for quite some time on seventh.
The break was already in progress and the two superstars were abandoned at the table. Bonomo waited for about three minutes and then decided to call the clock. The tournament floor person came over, asking about the situation. "One bet? Okay, you have ten seconds," he informed Forrest.
Forrest seemed to be upset with such an ultimatum, but he didn't protest. He kept thinking about his move until the time expired. Forrest's hand was declared dead and Bonomo took down the pot without showing any of his hole cards.
