With 15 players left, everyone is perhaps treading carefully in case they make a big misstep as we get closer to the final table.

In this hand the full board was out between Kees Aerts and Ami Barer. Barer bet 53,000 on the Club 2Diamond 5Diamond 10Heart 9Heart Q board and Aerts raised to 144,000. Barer, who was receiving a massage at the time, agonized over his decision before sliding out a tower of 5,000-value chips forward to indicate a call.

Aerts showed Spade 3Heart 3 and Barer took down the pot with Club QClub 9.

“Nice hand,” said Aerts, “Nice catch.”
