Johansen Breaks Ebanks
Joe Ebanks has survived many a confrontation (and stack adjustment) to get this far, half an hour before the end of play. However, he's just had to pay off 147k from his healthy stack leaving it breathing shallowly and looking faint (45k). He'd raised from the cutoff and found small blind Tom Johansen repopping it to 24,500 (from 6,400). Back to Ebanks, who after a moment's hesitation very softly announced, "All in." It took quite a while for Johansen to call but call he did with , and Ebanks' could do nothing with the flop or turn and river. Online qualifier Johansen nearly at 300k suddenly and looking to end the day in great shape.
