With just over 9,000 already in the pot and the board spread out 
the player in the big blind checked. Shivan Abdine was on the button and moved all in for 10,025 in chips.
His opponent went into the tank for several minutes as Abdine sat there motionless staring at the board.
Eventually, Abdine called 'time' on his opponent and watched as the clock ran down to just a few seconds before his opponent finally made the call.
Abdine then tossed his cards into the middle of the table exposing 
for a flush. His opponent flung back in his chair in disbelief before watching the pot get pushed over to Abdine.
