Eastgate Heads South
Level 16
: 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Peter Eastgate raised in mid position and online qualifier Marco Morales reraised out of the small blind. After a moment, with a suspicious look at his opponent, Eastgate made the call.
Our attention was diverted for a moment by an exit on another table (to follow), and when we returned to Eastgate's table the flop read and all the chips had gone in.

The stacks were counted, and Eastgate had change - around 7,000 chips' worth, or roughly one big blind. The 2008 World Champion may be not long for this tournament.
