: 500/1,000, 0 ante
We caught the action on a 
flop, with a player facing a tough decision. He had bet the pot of 8,500 only to be re-potted by Benjamin Eilers, who was in position. Although he had a few more chips left behind him, he was effectively deciding about his tournament life with just a few to the money and a healthy stack still behind him.
Eventually he made the call with 
for top two pair and Eilers showed 
for a rap draw. The turn and river both got him there when it came 
and 
. The chips were counted out and Eilers just barely had his opponent covered. With the hand, Eilers has 80,000 and we are now just two from the money.
