Phan Takes the Entire Clock

We caught up with Tuan Phan betting 7,400 on a flop of {J-Hearts} {2-Spades} {3-Diamonds} and Steven Skowronski raised to 16,300. Phan went deep into the tank after the raise, so deep that a player not involved in the hand called for the clock on Phan. The floorman arrived and informed Phan he had one minute to make his decision. The floorman announced when 30 seconds had passed and then started counting down from ten.

Just as the floorman reached one Phan quietly announced, "Call." The turn brought the {Q-Hearts}, Phan checked and Skowronski checked behind after some thought. The river came {10-Spades} and Phan checked again.

Skowronski checked behind and tabled {K-Spades} {Q-Diamonds} for top pair. Phan turned up [3] {2-Clubs} for a flopped two pair and took a sizable pot. Phan is challenging for the chiplead after that hand.
