Gherciu Put in the Blender; Break Begins
Level 17
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
75,000 was in the pot on the 
board. Viorel Gherciu bet 65,000 from the big blind before Baptiste Scorsone jammed for 202,000 on the button.
Gherciu jokted back into his chair and started pulling at his hair.
"Wow, wow, wow," he repeated. After three minutes he let it up and Baptiste quickly dragged in the pot.
The 143 remaining players are now on a 15-minute break. Day 1b will close when 106 remain.
