On a flop of 
, Alexander Ivarsson checked to Vlad Darie in the cutoff. Darie bet 11,000 and Ivarsson called.
The turn brought the 
and again Ivarsson checked. Darie asked Ivarsson how much he had behind, but Ivarsson remained stoic. The shot clock ran out on Darie who had no time banks remaining, but the floor was called because Darie wanted clarification of the ruling because he took time waiting for a replay from Ivarsson. The ruling was that Darie must check.
So the duo was off to the river of the 
and once more Ivarsson checked. This time, Darie slid forward a tower of T-5,000 chips that would cover Ivarsson's remaining 92,000 chips.
Ivarsson used 3 minutes of time bank chips before flicking in a chip to call with his tournament on the line.
Darie showed 
for a stone bluff.
Ivarsson showed 
for just second pair, but it was good.
Darie is down to under 400,000 while Ivarsson's stack is back over 200,000 and healthy as the bubble continues.
