Over at the featured TV table, there was a multi-way pot. With about 100,000 in the pot, the flop was . Theo Jorgensen bet 60,000. Magnus Persson raised to 320,000. Dominic Kay went into the tank for three minutes, then a clock was called on him. Just as his hand was about to be killed, he folded. Annette_15 folded. Jorgensen stood up and showed his hand...the ...before he folded.
"I'm going to wait to see what you had on TV," said Jorgensen. "If I find out you bluffed me, I'm going to hunt you down, wherever you are, and beat you up."
"It wasn't a bluff," said Persson.
"Then show," responded Jorgensen.
It appeared that Persson was about to flip over his cards, but he slowly tossed them into the muck. Looks like Jorgensen will have to wait to see it on TV.

I'm a milionaire!!!... in chips
As we approach the break, the current chip leader is Johannes Korsar with 1,375,000 in chips, only one of two players to have broken that elusive one million barrier.

The outer table hasn't seen very many hands shown down (apart from one optional stone-cold bluff from Tabatabai), but there has been a measure of risk from the small stacks. Both Matthew McCullough and James Keys have reraised preflop raisers off hands by moving in. On the former's shove, Tino Lechich really went into the tank, face in hands, before passing, but that's the closest we've gotten to any big action. Dinner tends to loosen people up for some reason -- we'll have to see when we get back.

Hungry Hoff
If there aren't pork chops at the upcoming buffet, then at least we got a taste of a chop here at the featured table on what turned out to be the very last hand of the level.
It was a relatively straightforward affair, Annette's 117k preflop raise with being reraised all in by Steven, who also held Big Slick, .
"Are you calling?" asked Steven.
"Of course I am," laughed Annette.
Annette called the extra 70k and it was on their backs, most of the crowd fully expecting a split pot. However, it appeared as though the dealer had other ideas, swiflty spreading out an flop.
With a few hearts in mouths, the dealer dealt a black turn, but it was a spade, the , before a blank hit the turn to save Annette from a cardiac arrest.
Choppy choppy, and the continually short-stacked Hoff makes it to din dins unscathed.
