John Juanda was down to around 10,000 earlier in the evening, appearing as though he were in danger of an early exit from Event #55. But he nursed his short stack through the last couple of levels, and as play is coming close to an end he has managed to build back up over 120,000.

Juanda earned some more chips recently in a hand versus Chris Klodnicki in which the two players battled preflop to built a decent-sized pot before the first three community cards came {3-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{2-Clubs}. Klodnicki bet 10,600 in an effort to claim what was in the middle, but Juanda raised all in for more than 60,000 total.

Klodnicki thought for a couple of minutes before acting. "Do you have ace-king?" asked Juanda. "Maybe," grinned Klodnicki.

Finally Klodnicki found a fold, and a couple of Juanda's supporters on the rail applauded the play.
