On the first hand back from dinner, Jeremy Ausmus raised to 50,000 in early position, and it folded around to Kevin Pollak. He three bet it to 150,000, and it folded back around to Ausmus. He four bet all in, putting Pollak to a decision for the rest of his stack. Pollack tanked for a couple of minutes before flicking his cards into the middle.
Ausmus quickly jumps up to 897,000, while Pollak drops down to under 400,000.
