Nelson quickly folded as Wong threw his head back in the air in disgust as if Nelson had escaped a big hand. Wong is up to 39,000 with Nelson still comfortable with about 20,000.
. Marcus, as first to act, made it 7,000 to go. Ellis called.Both players checked the turn
. The river paired the board and brought an all-in bet from Marcus of 24,100. Ellis went deep into the tank, staring at the board without any indication of what to do. She was in the tank for at least three or four minutes, long enough for every player at the table except Marcus and Ellis to get up and stretch their legs. Ellis finally made the call, with Marcus triumphantly turning over . Ellis nodded and mucked.That pot was worth approximately 74,000 chips for Marcus.
