Moolhuizen and Karlic Clash In Huge Pot
The pot stood at around 500,000 with two players looking at a board of 10♣J♦2♣J♠.
Mateusz Moolhuizen, in the big blind, already had a wager of 700,000 out in front of him. Gerald Karlic, in the hijack, had moved all-in for 2,175,000.
Moolhuizen went deep into the tank, visibly pained by the decision, eventually prompting Karlic to call the clock. The floor was called, giving Moolhuizen a thirty-second countdown, during which he reluctantly made the call.
Gerald Karlic: A♦J♥
Mateusz Moolhuizen: J♣8♥
Both players turned trips, but Karlic's kicker played on the 6♦ river, earning him this substantial pot.
After the pot was claimed, the two got into a heated debate over whether calling the floor was necessary given the severity of the decision and the time that had elapsed.
