Players aren't hanging around to make the dinner break... if the stack's less than 20k, there's a good chance the player behind it is getting it in round about now.

Like, for example, Devilfish - he just got it all in vs. Jeff Kimber on a {A-Hearts} {8-Spades} {10-Spades} flop holding {A-Diamonds} {10-Clubs} {K-Diamonds} {9-Hearts} vs. Kimber's flush drawy same-made-hand {A-Spades} {Q-Spades} {10-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds}. That resulted in a chop as the turn and river came {4-Hearts} {10-Hearts}.

But then the very next hand he threebet preflop and picked up a young Finnish player who called the necessary 6k to see a {K-Spades} {2-Spades} {2-Hearts} flop with the Devilfish. Sensing the inevitable, Young Finnish Player checked and Devilfish moved in for just over 11k. He waited for some brow furrowing before the fold then announced, "Aces," flipping up the entirely unrelated {A-Spades} {6-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds}.

"I can't stand the bullying any more," he told the table as he raked in the pot with a grin.
