GeoffFisk

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Joseph Crowley opened from the button, and Craig Disalvo took his time making a decision on his next move from the big blind.

"Can I call the clock on myself?" asked Disalvo. Somebody at the table eventually did call clock, though it's unclear if Disalvo himself was the one that drew the floor over.

He finally made the call, bringing a flop. Disalvo checked, Crowley bet 5,000, and this time Disalvo made a quick fold.

Player	Chips	Progress
Joseph Crowley	84,000	21,500
Craig Disalvo	56,500	21,500
