Korik Calls Clock on Himself!
Zachary Korik could have started a new craze in poker, calling the clock on himself when facing an decision that would have cost him around half of his stack.
With 90,000 chips already in the pot, Korik checked, which opened the door for Bryan Pellegrino to move all-in for around 160,000 chips. Korik sat squirming in his seat for a couple of minutes before asking his table mates to call the clock on him.
They all refused so Koric called the clock on himself, giving himself a minute to make his decision. Tournament Director, Thomas Kremser stood behind him and was about to start the timer but Koric finally made his decision, and that was fold.
Pellegrino is now standing on 240,000 chips
