Filed per bug-repot by NicoV, which I can reproduce consistently in Firefox:
After Ctrl+Click, I move the cursor (the hovercard disappears).
I go to the new tab, move the mouse far away from where it was, and then close the tab.
Then, Chrome displays again the previous page on which I did the Ctrl+Click : the hovercard reappears even if the cursor is nowhere near the link.
Version: unspecified
Severity: normal

screenCast
Screencast showing the problem.
I ctrl-click (or middle-click, or right-click-open-in-new-tab) the link, and every time I go back to the original page, the hovercard reappears.
Even if I mouseover other links (to trigger new hovercards).
The only way to cancel it, is to left-click somewhere on the original page.

I've been meaning to write up this bug for a while. Here's an equivalent screencap that I recorded this morning.
Browser: Chrome (54.0.2840.71) on macOS Sierra (10.12).
@ovasileva, @HaeB: Note well that dismissed events are logged every time you tab out and then back in.
note: we're observing that this only happens when the link is clicked, not the hovercard. ,
Tested: Firefox 51.0.1
Tested: Chrome 56.0.2924.87
Tested: Safari 9.1.3
Observed behavior is acceptable. Resolving.
@phuedx - the observed behavior is acceptable and previews are no longer stuck on Safari - any thoughts on why it's different throughout browsers though?
