Benny Spindler opened the action to 44,000 from middle position, and the short stack of Balazs Botond went into the pot, all 57,000 of it. Ludovic Lacay wanted to play for more, and he re-raised to 130,000. Spindler got the message and ducked out of the way, putting Botond heads up with the chip leader for his tournament life.
Botond was in bad shape, too. He tabled , dominated by Lacay's . The flop provided a bit of hope as it came to give Botond a gutterball straight draw. The turn was a blank , but the saving peeled off on the river, filling in that king-high straight and nearly quadrupling Botond's stack. He's up to 211,000 now.
