For six minutes, neither player talked, simply shuffling chips quietly, while Sammartino studied the board and his chips. Five minutes into the break, Yockey called for a clock. Sammartino let the thirty-second clock tick all the way to zero, killing his hand, and Yockey took down the final hand before break.
