Following an under the gun raise, Erich Tedeschi moved all in for 22,000 and Al Jandeel moved all in over the top for 77,000. The original raiser folded and players flipped their cards, with Tedeschi at risk.
Erich Tedeschi: 4♣4♥
Al Jandeel: A♥A♠
Tedeschi called out for the "quatre" as the board ran out 5♠9♦K♣9♥4♦. The quatre did indeed come on the river and Tedeschi let out a yell of joy as he doubled up to survive.
The bubble is now close, the tension in the room growing, the calls of "Time" ringing out across the floor as players attempt to stall their way through.
