Limited Action

Now that we're down to 11, play seems to have slowed down a bit - with the average stack at 50 big blinds there's a lot of play in this structure yet, and there's a whole world of difference between the �36,000 on offer for 11th place and the �825,000 carrot dangling over first place.

We did manage to catch one interesting hand at the outer table, though. Candido Goncalves opened for 106,000 from the button but in the small blind Shander de Vries made it 300,000 to go. After a bit of a tank, Goncalves called.

They saw a {7-Spades} {4-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} flop and de Vries bet out 250,000. Goncalves, who seems to be a bit of an habitual tanker, spent a tantalisingly long amount of time thinking about it, but eventually folded.
