The Ten-Minute Hand; Featuring the Poker Brat
Livello 19
: 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
We caught up with the action on a 
flop. Phil Hellmuth checked from the big and the player in the cutoff bet 30,000. Hellmuth tanked, which accounted for about two minutes of the hand, but then announced he was all in for 103,000.
His opponent appeared to fall hard into the tank. Several minutes passed and he eventually said, "Sorry to do this to ya, but I've gotta call the clock," much to the confusion of the table.
"I went all in!" Hellmuth said. Suddenly realizing this, Hellmuth's opponent immediately mucked.
"You tanked for seven minutes with ace-queen high!" Hellmuth joked.
"I did have ace-queen," his opponent said.
In any case, Hellmuth is up to 220,000.
