Chisu Calls the Clock on Himself
Level 24
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Danut Chisu opened to 80,000 from late position and Fadi Zarka three-bet to 300,000 from the blinds. When it got back to Chisu, he called.
Zarka immediately shoved on the K♥3♥3♠ flop for 460,000, which sent Chisu into the tank for quite some time. So much time passed that Chisu called the clock on himself and was given a 30-second countdown. With just a few seconds to go, Chisu called.
Fadi Zarka: J♠J♣ 
Danut Chisu: 10♠10♥
Chisu, now perhaps regretting his decision to call the clock on himself, had two outs to find with two attempts. However, the 7♠A♣ runout wasn't of any help, and he was left very short-stacked.
