Voulgaris Pisses Steven Off

Haralabos Voulgaris just won a chunk of chips off Brandon Steven, but not without controverse. The action started on Steven, who raised under the gun to 275,000 and Voulgaris three-bet to 700,000 from late position. Steven called.

The flop came down {Q-Clubs}{6-Spades}{5-Clubs} and Steven check-called a 600,000-chip bet.

The turn was the {a-Spades}, and it got very interesting after Steven had checked. Voulgaris moved all in for 2,735,000 after having counted his chips very slowly, and Steven went into the tank.

After around 75 seconds Voulgaris called the clock on his opponent. Steven was far from happy and told the floor he hardly had time to make up his mind in this big pot. The floor decided he would get extra time.

Another minute went by and Voulgaris called the clock again!

Steven was pissed off and said, "We are playing for millions of dollars here, why the rush?" as he folded his cards with ten seconds left on the clock. Voulgaris took down the pot and is closing in on the average stack.
