Initially there was a clock problem. Keti at around 6 secs with 6 moves to play, Jacob with 19 minutes but playing his moves almost as quickly as Keti, the clock was taking a bit of a hammering. It failed. While a replacement clock was being set up Jacob's phone rang. Although he had handed it to the arbiter before play he had evidently not switched it off (it was a ringtone, not a battery/power signal). Prior to play the room was told clearly that if a mobile rang that player would lose and there would be no exceptions.
The outcome was not resignation but a loss due to the phone.
