Two Clocks

Following some preflop action, Dag Palovic entered into a betting war on a {J-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{7-Hearts} flop as his lead of 2,000 was min-raised to 4,000, triggering Pavolic to make it 8,000. As his opponent was dwelling - at which point the clock was called - Pavolic commented, "If you fold, I'll show you my hand for $100." Despite this tempting offer, his opponent opted to call.

The turn was the {3-Hearts}, and after betting 4,000, Pavolic then put his opponent all in for 9,400 on a {9-Diamonds} river. Again, a dwell, and again, a clock was called, and, again, a call was made, Palovic scooping the pot with {5-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}. Consequently, he's just shy of the 100,000 mark.
