Cardyn Clocked Again

It's awfully hard to gather the action as our access to the final table is nonexistent. We're relying on a whispering announcer who is trying his best to announce in his second language -- English. We're doing our best, but it's very difficult for the time being.

On the last hand, it appears that Nicolas Cardyn raised to 60,000 and Daniela de Lima Zapiello called. They both checked the flop of {9-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts}, and they did the same when the {2-Spades} hit the turn. On the river, the {K-Spades} drew a leading bet of 70,000 from Cardyn. After a moment, Zapiello stuck in a raise to 170,000. That sent Cardyn into the tank, and once again he was clocked rather quickly by someone at the table.

This time about 30 seconds of the countdown expired before Cardyn decided to make the call, turning up {3-Hearts} {3-Clubs}. It was a good call. Zapiello was on a bluff with {A-?} {J-?}, and Cardyn will take some of her chips as a reward for his solid decision.
