: 12,000/24,000, 2,500 ante
Boris Becker has been climbing steadily today and was above three million chips at one point, but a little hiccup occurred just before the break, that put the tennis legend back down to average stack once more.
A shortstacked Preben Stokkan raised to 50,000 from early position and only Becker in the big blind was up for some games. He reraised to 200,000 and Stokkan put his remaining 370,000 in the middle. Becker quickly called.
Boris Becker: 
Preben Stokkan: 
The board ran out 
giving Stokkan the rivered set for good measure. Becker is still above his 1,992,000 starting stack of the day.
