Nielsen Calls Time on Tuil - Twice

Fabrice Tuil
Fabrice Tuil

A weird preflop pot saw under the gun Thomas Nielsen re-raising after Fabrice Tuil had made it 7,300 (picking up Eric Sadoun on the button somehow too). He made it 22k with 40k behind, and Tuil began to consider. He asked Nielsen something (which I didn't catch but was probably Standard Poker Question A or B, about what his holding was or whether he wanted a call) and Nielsen replied, "What do you want me to say? I'll say whatever makes you happy."

What he actually said, about 30 seconds later, was, "Time!" which probably didn't make Tuil that happy.

The dealer nodded but presumably was counting the minute himself; Nielsen thought he hadn't been understood and after ten seconds more said, "Time?" again.

"Time time oui oui," snapped back Tuil.

"I just want you to make a decision," said Nielsen. The decision for both remaining players was Fold - although Sadoun (bet you've forgotten about him) showed his {A-Spades} {Q-Diamonds} as he mucked.
