Romaine Goes Lead Foot
Sulabh Choudhury raised to 50,000 on the button and Andy Hwang and William Romaine called from the blinds.
The flop came down 
. Hwang and Romaine checked, Choudhury bet 60,000, Hwang called, Romaine check-raised to 263,000., Choudhury called and Hwang folded.
The turn was 
and Romaine bet 525,000. Choudhury took a few moments before calling. The dealer then burned and turned the river 
and Romaine kept the pressure on, announcing he was all in.
Prior to the shove, there was around 1.8 million in the pot and Romaine appeared to have around 1.67 million in chips behind. Choudhury went into the tank, counting out his remaining stack of 1,565,000. After four minutes, a clock was called on him while the rest of the tournament had begun to go on their first break.
The countdown for the final five seconds was reached and ultimately expired with Choudhury holding his cards in the air, seemingly ready to muck them. He did muck them two seconds later after his hand was already dead and Romaine raked in the pot before heading to break.
