. Paulsen checked and Cserei fired a continuation bet of 8,000. Paulsen then check-raised to 18,000, wanting to play for more. Cserei took only a brief few moments and then announced that he was all in. With a big sigh, Paulsen made the call. He was calling off his remaining stack of just under 100,000 so this pot was crucial to his tournament. It was also massive.

and once again, no help for Cserei. He was knocked all the way down to just 30,000 chips after sending over the money. Paulsen now has over 200,000 chips and has catapulted himself to one of the top spots on the board.
