Nygard Clocks Maceiras

Don't call the clock early on this guy...
Don't call the clock early on this guy...
A huge pot was brewing on Table 1. Juan Maceiras had fired 100,000 on the turn of a {10-Clubs} {6-Clubs} {4-Diamonds} {7-Hearts} board and after a think, Fredrik Nygard made the call. On the river {7-Diamonds} Maceiras set his opponent in and Nygard went into the tank.

After only two minutes or so, Maceiras called, "Time," which caused a look of bemusement from one of their tablemates, who must have felt he hadn't had enough time yet. But as soon as Maceiras called for time, Nygard shot him a look and immediately called, flipping {10-Spades} {9-Clubs} and Maceiras mucked.

Nygard allowed himself a little shout of joy as the half-million pot was sent his way.
