Becker Gets Short Again
Level 16
: 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Timothy Adams raised to 280,000 on the button and was called by Big Tony in the small blind and Johannes Becker in the big blind. On the 
flop, the action checked to Adams and he continued for 400,000. Big Tony quickly folded, while Becker called. The 
followed on the turn and Becker checked once more, Adams bet 1.2 million and that's all it took to win the pot uncontested.
Soon after, Becker was involved in a hand with Patrik Antonius and the latter checked the 
flop out of the small blind. Becker on the button bet 300,000 and Antonius check-raised to 900,000. That was enough to force out Becker, who slipped below 20 big blinds as a result.
