Tightly Does It

With the exit of the tiny Italian raising machine, play has become noticeably more cagey, mostly consisting of steals from the button, occasionally interspersed with a walk or a reraise from the big blind and a swift fold from the original raiser.

At one point Barbosa raised to 44,000 from the button and Behling reraised to 125,000, only for Barbosa to announce, "All in" -- but Behling folded instantly, and it was back to caginess for our heads-upsers.
