YoH Viral accussed of ruining the game by having the clock called on him three times in a single hand!

Johan “YoH ViraL” Guilbert has been slammed for repeated stalling during the EPT Paris where in one particular hand his opponents called the clock on him three times! The Frenchman is known for his tanking antics and now it appears that people have had enough.

Tanking has long been something the high stakes European players are accused of doing way too much but YoH ViraL takes it to another level.

Once this EPT Paris Main Event hand was reported, social media went bananas, and it looks like players intend to shame the Frenchman into speeding up by collectively always calling the clock on him whenever possible.

WPT Executive Tour Director Matt Savage posted a Twitter poll that had almost 95% of responders saying YoH ViraL was ruining the game.

Matt Berkey went to great lengths to make it clear how much he likes YoH ViraL as a person but stated he is terrible to play against in any kind of game.

Surprisingly to many, American player Jordan Cristos came out in defence of his European rival, saying that in many cases the tanking is justified because there is a non-trivial decision to be made.

Berkey strongly disagreed and fired back with an accusation that Cristos himself is almost as bad as YoH ViraL for wasting time at the table.

Check out Matt Berkey’s latest podcast below where they delve into the details of the tanking debate.
