Calderaro Chips Up
Level 20
: 12,000/24,000, 0 ante
James Calderaro defended his big blind against a raise by Ryan Tosoc and check-called a bet of 200,000 on the 
flop. On the 
turn both players checked and Calderaro bet the 
river for 175,000. Tosoc folded and Calderaro flashed the 
with the words "I made a pair."
Tosoc replied "you had the better hand" before also being shown 
by the defending champion.
The hand for hand mode has already taken up more than 90 minutes of real time with more than 35 hands played, just one hopeful departed and the money is still two spots away.
