Wattel's Stack Withering

In a hand just before the break, Ben Ponzio raised, Mike Wattel reraised from the small blind, and Ponzio called.

Wattel took one card, and Ponzio two. Wattel bet, and Ponzio called. The second round followed the same pattern: Wattel took one, Ponzio two, and Ponzio called Wattel's bet.

On the third draw, Wattel took one card and Ponzio stood pat. Both checked. Ponzio showed a 10-7-5-4-2, and Wattel mucks.

Wattel has now slipped to 16,000. When we begin the next level, he'll have not even two big bets.
