Snuffer Tanks Five Minutes But Finds 'Call' Button

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Iverson Snuffer was in early position, locking horns with an opponent in the small blind. The board had come {8-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{4-Clubs}, and action was on the small blind. He slid in a tower of T5,000 chips to put Snuffer at risk for his whole stack of about 90,000. It was roughly a pot-sized bet. Snuffer went deep into the tank.

After about three minutes, he said anyone was free to call the clock. Most of the players at the table were standing up and stretching, and they told him to take his time. After about two more minutes, he slid in a stack of chips to call.

The small blind flipped over {a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} for an ace-high bluff. Snuffer showed {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} and dragged the pot. He said his blockers to the nut straight pushed him towards a call.
