On a completed board of 
, Christoph Vogelsang was facing an all-in bet for his last 15,000. The perpetrator was Arben Cimilji, who sat stoically while time was ticking away.

face-up in the muck. Cimilji immediately flashed 
for the bluff and Vogelsang mustered up a thin smile.
"Thanks for calling the clock," laughed Cimilji to the tablemate who spoke up.
