As the players approach the money bubble, the once gamble-friendly environment has tightened up quite a bit and several clocks have been called this past level.
2023 World Series of Poker
Jonathan Penner opened to 13,000 preflop and then the small blind three-bet to 44,000 after action folded around. Penner made the call and the two went heads-up to a flop of J♦J♥8♦
The small blind continued for 40,000 but then Penner snap-shoved all in, covering his opponent who went into the tank.
After a while, someone called the clock on him and the floor came over to issue a countdown, but soon after it started, he mucked his hand to award Penner the pot.
