We caught up with this hand on the flop with the board showing As 6s 2s. Sachin Chopra was all in for around 40,000 and an unknown player in Seat 1 was deep in the tank considereing a call. He flashed an ace to Chopra while the hand was live and the floor was called.

Time ticked on and on and eventually Seat 1 called the clock on himself to force a decision. About halfway through his allotted time he stuck chips in the middle to call and showed Ac 8h.

Chopra tabled pocket tens, the board finished 9d Ts and Chopra came from behind to take the pot.

The player was beside himself for both Chopra's play and the river card. He loudly cursed at the situation and recieved a three-hand penalty for his actions.
