Pantling Paid
A big bet on the river with a board of from Andrew Pantling just now, which paused his table for a while as opponent Fabrizio Baldassari thought for a long time about the 122,500 which the aggressive Pantling had bet, reaching only slightly into his million-chip stack to do it. Pantling waited patiently, but his patience, and his smacking of the flop, was rewarded when Baldassari paid and mucked, his for the flopped set making him the first player past the 1,000,000 mark.
