Martin is Shoved on, then Shoves in Turn

Frank Martin faced an all-in lead of 225,000 on a flop of into a pot that had already swelled to 140,000. Peter Kamaras, who'd put his tournament life on the line betting out here, had to wait a moment for Martin (with 405,000 behind) to make his decision. He folded.

The very next hand Martin himself moved all-in when it folded round to him in middle position. No interest was shown until action reached Scott Numoto in the big blind. Numoto stood up, looking at his opponent's stack, until the floor told him, "You have to be in a seat to play a hand. All in is a different matter."

Numoto sat down and asked for a count of Martin's chips, then folded. Racks were handed out as yet another table breaks; there are 180 players left with the payout level currently at $3,758.
