Clock Called on Sammartino
Level 16
: 5,000/10,000, 0 ante
The board read 
and John Riordan bet 150,000 into a pot of around 200,000. Action was on Dario Sammartino who had steadily been chipping up all day.
Eventually Riordan called the clock on the Italian who looked on nonplussed as he was counted down and the clock hit zero and his hand was dead.
Riordan is now closing in on a million chips with 92 players remaining according to the tournament clock.
