We found a player under the gun contemplating an all-in shove from Teresa Hemingway on a 
board. The player had bet 5,500 and Hemingway had put him at risk for his last 38,000 or so. Someone called a clock after a few minutes, and the player called after the tournament director was about to begin the countdown.
Under the gun: 
Hemingway; 
The player had made the right read, but Hemingway spiked the on the river to make trips, and the under-the-gun players silently grabbed his coat and backpack and exited the area.

Aaron Frei opened for 2,700 in the cutoff, and Matt Alexander shipped it for 17,800 in the small blind. After contemplating briefly, Frei made the call.
Frei:
Alexander:
Neither player had much, but Frei's king high stayed best on the 
flop. A 
turn left Alexander very likely to double though, and he did just that when the 
fell.
