"I call," Douaglin said excitedly and rolled over the for the rivered nuts. Clee stood up and went to muck his cards. Since it was an all-in situation the dealer was obliged to show his hand, and she revealed Clee had missed a flush draw with the .

Play Slows Considerably

MarcC

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 30,000 ante

After an action filled, elimination frenzied first two levels of play here on Day 4 the action had to slow down at some point. That point seems to be the current (third) level of the day and was to be expected seeing as the average big blind count is around 60 deep.

Table 31 has only seen Lennart Uphoff show down a hand so far although a few hands have played to the river without showdown.

Richard Lyndaker has got back over a million after he raised pre flop and bet the turn and river of a board. Raiden Kan stuck with him but folded to the 95,000 river bet.

Barer Tanks

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

As the dealer pulled in two big stacks of chips from Ami Barer and Brian Rast on the board, the pot swelled. The river was the , and Barer, the defending champion of this event, checked. Rast announced that he was all in, and that put the pressure on Barer.

With just about 965,000 behind, Barer went into the tank. He stayed in the tank for a very, very, very long time. It was well over 10 minutes, and maybe closer to the 15-minute mark, that Barer tanked for on the river. Eventually, Rast called the clock. The clock ran all the way down to zero on Barer, and his hand was ruled dead. Rast didn't show and scooped in the pot to move to 3.325 million in chips.
