Its an old rule.

[@bryanvalmonte410]

He did it intentionally to run the down time of the other person, if you notice he also actually got a free move on rook to b2. His opponent who was speaking tagalog was saying "That's cheating, you already hit the timer."

It's an age-old rule. Never bet too much money against the chess hustlers in the park. The guys in NYC's Central Park are like that too.
