Eli, the Thinker

Eli Elezra
Eli Elezra
Players are weighing every decision with great care here on the cash bubble, as illustrated by this hand that took place prior to the break.

On a board of {Q-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{2-Spades}, Emmanuel Sebag checked, Eli Elezra checked, and then John Juanda bet 52,000. Both Sebag and Elezra called.

The river was the {6-Diamonds}. Sebag checked, Elezra bet 40,000, and then Juanda pushed all in for 130,000.

Sebag folded quickly, but Elezra had to think about it. A long time passed -- perhaps as much as ten minutes -- and Negreanu apologetically called the clock. Elezra folded.

Juanda is up to 460,000, and Elezra at 290,000.
