Back(house) to the Grind for Soyza
Level 21
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 15,000 ante
Chris Backhouse defended against Michael Soyza and check-called a bet on the 
flop. On the 
turn, Backhouse checked again and Soyza bet 110,000. The Brit then jammed all-in and Soyza asked for the bet to be pulled in to determine how much more the shove was for.
That happened to be 349,000 on top and Soyza used one time bank extension before making the call.
Chris Backhouse: 
Michael Soyza: 
"Oh wow ..." Soyza sighed with a dry smile on the face as Backhouse had locked up the double already, with the 
river becoming a formality.
"Back to the grind," the Malaysian mentioned as he dropped below a million in chips and was surpassed by Backhouse.
