Showdown At High Noon

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 1,000 ante

Play has slowed considerably nine handed with no one wanting to be the next person out.

However, one big confrontation just played out on the felt with Event #1 Champ Jerry Calvaneso limping from late position and Jason Stockfish shipping it in from the big blind for some 290,000.

Calvaneso threatened to call a number of times, asked if Stockfish would show and continually expressed interest in a real confrontation.

With Stockfish saying very little except that he "might" show, Calvaneso eventually thought better of it and let go of {k-}{q-}. Stockfish did not show.
