A few spots folded over to Dennis Huntly in middle position and he moved all in for 21,400. Play moved around to Howard Lederer next, he was in the small blind. He tanked for about a minute and then mucked his hand. Michelle Clarke was in the big blind and she began to tank. After about a minute she said, "I really want to play this hand. But if I lose, it's going to kill my stack."

Another two or three minutes went by in silence as Clarke tanked. Huntly sat motionless, waiting for her to make a decision. She counted out the chips to make the call and verified the amount with the dealer twice. Then, she made the call. When the hands were revealed, everyone was surprised.

Huntly: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}
Clarke: {K-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}

"What was I thinking for with pocket nines?" chimed in Lederer.

The board then ran out {A-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{10-Hearts} and that was it for Huntly. Clarke got up and moved over to his side of the table. "I'll shake your hand," she said. "Good game."

As Huntly walked away from his table and out of the room, Clarke sat back in her seat and said, "I thought he had aces."

Huntly stopped off at the media desk and had his own thoughts. "I just got faacking slowrolled by some woman with a strap on. She was lubing it up before she stuck it in me! Faacking hell!"

"Can we quote you on that?"

"Yes, you can faacking quote me on that!" answered Huntly.

A moment later, he went on, "So what else is on for today?"

"There's the heads-up event and a teams event later today," said one of our bloggers.

"Oh, maybe I'll go ask her to be my partner when she busts out of the main," joked Huntly.
