Level 32:  100,000/200,000 with a 200,000 ante
Players Remaining:  14 of 4,259

The action has stalled to a crawl during the second half of Level 32, as one table — really one player — is playing much slower than the other.

Isar Miha-Emil has had the clock called on him nearly every hand as he tanks preflop. And he has an above-average chip stack of around 6.5 million.

Isar Miha-Emil  –  6,500,000  (33 bb)

Several players at the other table are complaining, and when the clock has been called, the amount of time Miha-Emil has been given has shrunk each time, and he now has 10 seconds to act when the clock is called.

Regardless of what happens, this will be the last level of the night, with action ending shortly after 3:00 am.
