Akiki Deep Into the Tank on First Hand, Brovko Shoves on Hadioglu
Level 1
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
Three-handed on a board of 
and 9,500 in the pot, Gabriel Akiki bet 5,000 from the hijack and was called by Maxim Brovko in the cutoff. Nuri Hadioglu, on the button, then raised to 25,000.
"Ah, first hand," Akiki said as he tanked for several minutes, starring down Hadioglu. Another player at the table began laughing at the time Akiki was taking before yet another tablemate called the clock.
Akiki allowed the countdown to reach zero before his hand was declared dead. Brovko still had to act, and he moved all in. Hadioglu quickly mucked.
