Chip Leaders Collide!

[user67765]

David Bach opened with a raise from middle position before Lee Nelson re-potted from the big blind. Bach made the call.

They saw a heads-up flop of {5-Clubs}

and Nelson checked to Bach who deliberated for a long time before declaring "pot" and sliding nearly 100,000 into the middle -- enough to put Nelson to a decision for his tournament.

In a massive clash of the two chip leaders at the table, the make or break decision sent Nelson into the tank for several minutes.

Eric Assadourian breaks the silence from the rail with a cry of "Talk him Lee! Get some information!"

Nelson giggled and turn to Bach and quipped "How you doing?" Bach remained motionless.

After another minute or two of thought Nelson declared "Call!"

Nelson: {A-Clubs}
