But after this hand, Glantz is back in business:
Gordon raised, but Richard Ashby had already put the chips to limp out in front of him. He tried to make it look like he'd just suddenly decided to shuffle a few extra inches away from himself, but no one was going to buy it so he gave up quickly and called the raise. Glantz and Eugene Katchalov both called as well.
The flop fell , and from the small blind, Glantz put in 50,000 bet. Katchalov folded, but the other two came along. All three checked the turn to see a free on the river.

He's back out of the danger zone and over 800,000 now.
