Slowdown

Not much to say right now. The gallery is deathly silent as the four relatively deep-stacked players do most of their jockeying pre-flop during this NLHE round. We did learn, a bit ago from our good colleague Jess Welman, that the small instrument the Brazilian side keeps strumming is most likely a cavaquinho.

There have been a few pots that have gone to a flop or beyond, but for the last few minutes nobody was calling the action in the gallery so it was tough to determine what's going on. It appeared the Brazilians and the Greeks were playing a relatively big pot, about 15,000 in before the river. On a board of {K-} {Q-} {Q-} {2-} {3-} Team Brazil led out for 8,300. Team Greece requested a coach's conference to discuss their strategy, then ultimately decided to call. We don't know what each side had, but Greee was pumped up and was pushed the pot.
