"Floor! Clock!" was the call from Roger Hairabedian's table and that got our attention. When we moved over to check out what was happening, we saw that there was a board of 
in the middle of the table and someone's chips pushed across the betting line for an all-in move. Those chips belonged to Hairabedian and he sat motionless while his opponent was in the tank.
According to the dealer, the player had thought for about three minutes before the clock was finally called on him. The floor issued the start of the clock and then about 30 seconds later, the player folded to Hairabedian's shove of about 2,000. Hairabedian collected the chips and went on to the next hand.

Remember when we said that this was expected to be the largest World Series of Poker Europe field ever? Well, it's well on pace for that. The board reads that today's flight already has 370 entrants with 351 remaining. If you simply double that, the record field of 608 will be crushed. Generally in tournaments, Day 1b is greater than Day 1a in two-starting-flight events. That should be the case here as well, which means this one will surely be the record setter.
Two 2011 World Series of Poker November Niners have joined the field today in Phil Collins and Matt Giannetti. Tom Dwan has also graced us with his presence and is seated at the same table as Jonathan Aguiar to start his tournament. Jean-Robert Bellande came in raising on the first hand he played, but folded to a three-bet and went back to filling out his waiver form.
