We caught up with this hand on the turn between Dan Smith and Jean-Louis Santoni. The board showed and Santoni bet 145,000. Smith called after a bit and the river came .
It took Santoni quite a bit of time to consider his action on the river. So much in fact John Esposito asked, "Is it someone's turn here?"
Santoni finally checked and Smith bet 263,000. Santoni took just a moment to fold.
Jonathan Poche opened a recent hand by moving all in from the cut off. Jamie Armstrong in the big blind completed the call and Poche was at risk.

Randy Green managed to get all in versus Jamie Armstrong and looked to be in great shape to double up as he tabled . Armstrong could only counter with and needed some help if he wanted to knock out another player.
