We found Christopher Kruk all in for 160,000 effective. The board had run out 
and the pot looked to contain at least 300,000. Artan Dedusha was in the tank a couple of seats over, apparently having already used two time extensions. He then engaged in a heated discussion with the dealer about his third, with the dealer contending he'd already used it up. Ultimately, Dedusha was given 30 more seconds.
"Well, guys..." he said before calling off.
"Aces," Kruk said, showing 
.
"Ahhhh," Dedusha replied, pitching his cards into the muck. The dealer showed 
for a backdoor flush.
Fahredin Mustafov cleared up how it all went down with a couple of questions to his fellow players.
"This was a four-bet pot, yeah?" asked he asked. "And then three-barrel?"
Someone answered in the affirmative to both queries.

Nick Petrangelo opened the cutoff and Igor Yaroshevskyy called from the big blind.
