Mader Busts Wasicka
Phil Mader opened for 1,300 in middle position and was called by Paul Wasicka on the button and both blinds. On the flop, the small blind bet out 1,500 and Mader called after the big blind folded. Wasicka made it 5,000 to go, forcing out the small blind, and Mader went into the tank. After some thought, he put 17,000 in, causing Wasicka to tank even longer.
"How long does a player have?" the small blind said. "Can I call the clock?"
"Sorry, but when you have this," she said, holding up a short stack of about 13,000, "you need to see some cards."
Wasicka elected to push all in for about 30,000, and the Nebraskan quickly called.

Mader was way in front, and running fives iced it for him.
Wasicka reentered and has been seated at the table nearest the media table.
