SVO...picking up the dice early in finals?

I love Art Benjamin, he is brilliant and awesome and super, super nice. Art, aside from being super nice and awesome, is on the BOD of the USBGF and I happen to know he is very well aware of the "rules" especially when a clock is being used, painstakingly aware, no doubt.

So I am left wondering why Art was picking up the dice before Chris even hit the clock?
Did anybody else see this? Was Art low on time?
If I am somehow incorrect about this, I apologize. Maybe Art and Chris agreed beforehand that this rule breaking behavior was ok? wtf do I know?

Speaking of weirdness on the stream...
Please don't act like a spoiled, pissy little person when the dice do not go in your favor.
I will not name names here, but if you watched the streams, I am sure you know who I am referring to.

Both of these instances are not nice and unsportsmanlike.
We have rules for a reason, it would be nice if they were adhered to.

That being said, thank you to Ben for streaming the SVO.

:-)
