Hand #15-- Alan Jaffray

It was folded around to Jeff Williams in the small blind and he raised to 45,000. Alan Jaffray called and they saw a {6-Diamonds} {2-Spades} {3-Diamonds} flop. Williams bet 65,000 and after thinking a bit Jaffray raised to 200,000. Williams did some thinking of his own before tossing in his hand.

Online Anxiety

With many of the players at this final table known for their online play, it's become no surprise to the spectators here that action is going to go fast. Preflop, in the three-way all-in hand, many of the crowd could be heard chuckling, with several addressing the hands as "internet hands/"

Though some predicted that the play here would be fast, no one could have predicted that we'd lose three so quickly. The atmosphere within the ESPN area is one of excitement, with many spectators having fun watching their friends and family do battle.
