Tough Spot for Makowsky
Makowsky agonized for several minutes. He counted his own stack a few times. A call would leave him with 20,000. The tournament floor emptied out for break, and finally, Makowsky folded face up. He asked Parades to show, but while sounding genuinely sorry not to be able to put him out of his misery, Parades said he'd tell him at the end of the tournament.
