Level 11 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

...Or pick up the blinds after a tense under the gun plus one shove. Adrian Buckley moved his last 12,000 chips over the line second to act, and faced a fate wait as Norm MacDonald in the cutoff wrestled with himself over whether to make the call out of his own 30,000 stack. Some agitated chip movements later, MacDonald opted to pass, as did everyone else at the table.

"What you have?" asked neighbour Naor Slobodskoy.
"Queen-king suited," replied MacDonald instantly.
"I would've called."

"Goddamn it," commented MacDonald, before berating himself wistfully for being "cowardly."
