This made-for-tv tournament has a very fast structure. It's not often you'll see a player 4-bet and then fold but that's exactly what James Bord debated for several minutes at one of the back tables. Bord opened his button with a raise that Andrew Robl re-raised. Bord then four-bet, prompting Robl to five-bet shove. Bord tanked, and tanked, and tanked some more. He asked the dealer to count down Robl's stack, after which Robl pulled his hoodie on and bowed his head. Robl had the narrow chip lead when Bord finally called.

Showdown:
Bord:
Robl:

Bord found himself in the unenviable position of being more or less pot committed with ace-ten. He was behind Robl's ace-king and remained behind throughout the entire board, . Robl will return tomorrow to continue his quest for $750,000.
