"Clock!"

Joe Tehan seems a little perturbed. And it's not just because he called the clock. He looks tired, ready to go home. But it's not because he's running bad or anything, actually he's winning pots.

On a board of {2-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} David Malka had bet out 35,000, but not without a long period of thinking. Tehan made the call and it was on to the turn.

Again, Malka took his time betting 75,000 on the {4-Hearts} turn and Tehan called again.

On the {K-Spades} river, Tehan finally got fed up with Malka's thinking.

"Who's turn is it?" he asked the dealer after at least a minute. The dealer pointed to Malka and Tehan called for a clock. The floor came over and gave Malka one minute to make a decision. Finally, Malka checked, and Tehan quickly checked behind.

Tehan showed the winning {A-Spades}{9-Spades}, while Malka showed an inferior {A-}{3-}.

"Seriously, every hand doesn't need to take this long," Tehan said after the pot.

After the hand Tehan was up to 750,000 while Malka dropped to 400,000.
