Action Slowed to Speed of Child Cleaning Up his Room

Each hand takes a good five minutes, and the players are on the main sitting and waiting, and folding once in a while, occasionally tangling while everyone else carries on the waiting. There were two hands in a row there where none of the four tables saw a flop, but they're all thinking carefully about every decision so even this was quite time consuming. Fair enough too - the next player out will have played for three days with no monetary reward at all, while the next one out is guaranteed €11,740.

One hand got a board and made it to the river - Fabrice Tuil calling Theo Jorgensen's preflop raise and then checking it all the way until that point, when he bet out 10k. Jorgensen looked over the {6-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} {J-Hearts} {4-Hearts} board and threw in the call. Tuil showed him {8-Spades} {8-Diamonds} which won him the pot.
