Ok, Now I was playing last night in a 100quid freezeout, got to the final 10 and we were going hand for hand, now Im on the button with 150,000 chips with 950,000 in play, find aces, raise it too 22,000 with blinds at 3,000 - 6,000 someone re raises to 75,000 (only leaves himself 27,000 behind) I push all in after the small blind getting out the way.

Now he looks at the other table, stands up and just watches there game for about 3 minutes, whilst someone makes a decision, am I wrong to call clock after 3 minutes, knowing he is waiting for someone to push on the other table so he doesnt bubble?

and yes, someone pushed on other table got knocked out before he did (time wise? according to the TD), he calls now knowing he has cashed, all of 50 quid profit, minus drinks, foods, tips etc, was I wrong to call clock, oh and he re raised me with 7,2 off, hoping to show a MAJOR BLUFF he said!

3 minutes was over-generous - after ten seconds of him looking at the other table I'd have said something. What happens if the guy at the other table does the same thing - nothing would happen.

Never looked at it like that, in the slightest to be honest!

On a slight tangent, if a tourney is hand for hand and two players go out on the same hand, do they still get ranked according to chip stack at start of the hand, or do they share the placing irrespective of chip stacks?

The tourney should be hand for hand and they should chop the prize money if they go out on the same hand.

As for his tactics, its all abit lol and i would have called a clock on him as soon I knew what he was up to. I have never called a clock on anyone but in these circumstances, I think its only fair to do so.

The majority rule that the higher chip stack gets the money.....although more and more are splitting the Money

If  2 players go out at the same time and they are on different tables they chop the money,
If 2 players both go out in the same hand from the same table the higher chip stack gets the money

4,000 - 8,000 - the raise was 32,000 pre flop mainly.

and 5,000 - 10,000 (blinds capped - 4 way) the raise was 50,000... I was following the crowd ha ha

indeed..as soon as he stands watching the other table I would even ask the TD to rule his hand dead as he obviously has no interest in his hand anymore. I hate angle shooters like that and they should be treated with the contempt they deserve.

people doing that is instant grounds for calling the floor and i believe would be penalised.

afaik as soon as someone steps up and away from their cards (even if to look at another table) their hand should be dead as long as they are not AI

It's the final table bubble...you have A-A...there are currently 234,000 chips sitting in the middle...and your oppo is fretting about calling. I couldn't give a stuff what's happening at the other table. I would sit back, relax, and enjoy the moment. The dealer can play policeman if he wants to....I'm too busy enjoying myself.
