"How much are you playing please?" he enquired of Tayfeh in a manner that suggested he meant business. 1.3 million at the start of the hand, was the answer. Piper reraised to 265,000.
Back to Tayfeh, who announced all in, and back to Piper, who announced call.

"I'd rather take a nine," smiled Tayfeh, standing up.
Board:
With that we lose Mr. Tayfeh. Piper, already chip leader before the hand, is now huge chip leader on a little over 5 million.
