As the tournament pushes through 40-minute levels, Leif Force has been pushing through his paperback copy of Anne Bishop's collection of stories, Dreams Made Flesh. Interestingly, Force has at times continued to read even while in hands, although just now he got involved in one that was enough to take his attention away from the worlds being spun by the best-selling fantasy author.

We caught up to this one following the single-suited {J-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{10-Clubs} flop and a decent-sized pot having already developed. Force checked, his opponent bet 3,400, and Force called. Both then checked the {K-Diamonds} turn.

The river brought the {9-Diamonds}, and Force didn't take too much time to carve out a bet of 22,000.

Alas for Force, his dream of making chips was soon dashed. Despite the quickness of his action, his opponent declared "all in" even before Force could push his chips forward, and Force didn't wait much longer before folding and returning to his book.
