Candio Pays for Bubble Aggression

Filippo Candio was heads up on an {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{9-Diamonds} board. His opponent bet 16,500, and he quickly made it 76,000 total. The other player, who had about 230,000 behind, took his time considering the implications of his next move. Candio got impatient and called for the clock after a few minutes. That was the sign the player needed. As soon as Candio called the clock, he announced he was all in. Candio made the dealer count down his opponent's stack, though he was probably never going to call the 175,000 extra. He decided to fold as soon as the ESPN cameras swarmed, and the all-in player picked up a nice pot to take into the money.
