Ahuja Backdoors a Flush, Paduano Angry At Clock Being Called
Arturo Paduano opened to 4,000 from under the gun and Ankit Ahuja peeled from the small blind.
They saw a flop of A♣2♥A♥ where Ahuja check-called a bet of 2,500.
Ahuja went into check-call mode again on the Q♣ turn after Paduano fired 6,000.
When the 7♣ dropped on the river, Ahuja checked for a third time and Paduano fired 12,000. Ahuja thought about it for a while then stuck in a raise to 60,000, which seemed to confuse Paduano as he took his sunglasses off and analyzed the board. After what seemed like a minute, Alexandru Farcasanu called the clock on Paduano.
"You take ten minutes every hand," said Farcasanu. Paduano wasn't happy and argued that it was a big pot and he hadn't had enough time to think, and that he shouldn't be put on a countdown. The floor came over but before they could initiate the count, Paduano called.
Ahuja showed K♣2♣ for a backdoored flush, and Paduano frustratingly flipped over A♦10♣ for trip aces.
