While Imad Derwiche was standing up from his chair after having folded and seemingly trained for the next edition of "Let's Dance" in front of the rail, including mostly Brazilians as well as Charlie Carrel and Ben Heath, it was folded around to Zvi Stern. The November Niner raised to 95,000 from the button and Alexandru Papazian called in the big blind.
On the

At the same time as the double up of Alexandru Papazian took place on the other table, Max Silver had raised to 85,000 and Ivan Deyra was in the small blind and gave it some thought.
"You better wait," Silver joked and once the double up was confirmed, Deyra pondered about his decision some more before clicking to 385,000 with around 300,000 behind.
Silver immediately moved all in and Deyra called it off only to see himself in bad shape.
Deyra: 
Silver:
