Byrraju Lets Go of Cards, Some Chips

Rahul Byrraju has seen his stack slide a bit here during the last hours of play while others in the field are starting to rise up around him. Just now we came upon a hand in which there was about 25,000 in the middle, Byrraju's opponent had pushed all in for 20,000 following a {5-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} flop, and Byrraju was in the tank.

"You have ten-jack?" he asked of his opponent. "You have a set?" Byrraju clearly seemed to want to call, but ultimately talked himself out of it.
