Fast Takes Down a Big Pot on the River
Unfortunately, we didn't catch the action on this hand but with about 170,000 in the pot and the board reading 
an opponent in the big blind checked. Dietrich Fast was on the button and fired out a bet of 115,000. The big blind tanked for what seemed like five minutes or possibly more... he apologized to the table a couple of times who all responded, "take your time". Fast didn't seem to have any care to call a clock and after the long deliberation, he folded.
