Vesty spent a solid minute contemplating a call, but eventually tossed his pocket threes face-up into the muck.
Vesty has been floating right around 100,000 in chips for the better part of an hour, while Fox continues to narrow the gap between himself and chip leader Chris Ferguson.
in a pre-flop all in confrontation.Ferguson opened the pot with a raise from the small blind and Fox answered with a 60,000 raise from the big. Chris went through his standard routine, patient and deliberate as always, before detaching a very tall pile of 5,000 chips from his stack and sliding them into the middle.
Now it was Dustin's turn to visit the tank after Chris had put him to a decision for all of his chips. Dustin hunched over his chips with his thumbs and index fingers in position to make the move and paused for a moment before pushing them across the betting line.
