Clock Runs Out on Zobian
Aram Zobian bet 77,000 from under the gun on a flop of 10♦5♠2♣ and Brandon Sunshine moved all in from early position. Zobian had around 15,000 remaining and again took a peek at the clock to see when the next pay jump was coming.
"I'll give you four minutes," Stephen Song said.
"That's too long," Zobian replied.
"Okay, two minutes. You're too rich," Song added.
"Somebody call the clock," Zobian eventually said, and Kyle Grosshanten obliged him as a tournament official arrived at the table to start the 30-second countdown.
"He really didn't take that long, but he kind of called the clock on himself. I wouldn't have done it," Grosshanten said.
Zobian waited until the timer had nearly reached zero before putting in his last chips.
Aram Zobian: 4♦4♣ 
Brandon Sunshine: A♠10♣
Zobian was behind Sunshine's top pair, and the A♦ turn improved Sunshine to two pair and gave Zobian outs to a straight. The river was the 8♦ and Sunshine took the pot to send Zobian to the rail.
