One player moved all in for 1,400 from middle position and Farzad Bonyadi called from the hijack seat. Play then folded to the player in the small blind and he reraised all in for 16,800. Action moved back to Bonyadi and he began to tank.
Bonyadi was in the tank for about two full minutes as the clock wound down on the level. Many of the players in the room started heading out the door to get an early start to dinner. That's when the first all-in player called the clock on Bonyadi. Bonyadi questioned why he would do such a thing as it's a very big decison for a lot of chips.
