Default I\'m pulling for Andy Black - a true sportsman

In an earlier round there was some confusion for a player (for whom English was not his first language) about the length of meal break. He thought it was 1 hour and in actuality it was only a 1/2 hour. Apparently there had been some confusing PA announcments which may have contributed to this. Black asked staff to go look for this player and/or wait a few minutes and he would go look. They said no. So Black slow-played every hand, asking for time, and generally delaying until the guy came back. He could have just sat back and watch this guy get blinded + anteed out of the tourney which obviously would have benefitted himself. I think that was really classy and I am hoping he wins!
