Big Stack Battle
The two biggest stacks at table 20 just went to war in a big pot. We missed the action but Bernard Vu kindly informed us that the pot was three-bet pre with action on every street between Jose Manuel Nadal Sordo and Michele di Lauro.
The final board read 
and a little less than 90,000 chips had ventured into the middle. Nadal checked from the big blind and faced a 47,500 bet from his French opponent. Nadal took so long to think that Jason Mercier called the clock. Nadal folded halfway through the countdown.
