One-time chip leader Rodoslaw Kopec has fallen in 30th place here today.
He opened to 7,200 from UTG and was only called by Fabian Craib in the big blind en route to a 
flop. Kopec continued for 8,000 but was check-raised up to 19,000. Call.
The turn came 
and Craib continued with initiative and bet 19,000. Kopec called to see the 
river where he faced a bet for his remaining 37,000. He sat and thought for so long that another table mate called the clock on him. Kopec was counted down to the last five seconds before he made the crying call all-in. Crain tabled 
and Kopec mucked and made his exit.
