The action was folded around to Jeff Williams in the small blind, who announced all in, putting the short-stacked Alan Jaffray to the decision. Jaffray looked at Williams, looked to the ceiling as if making his calculations, then laid it down.

Peter Gould raised to 63,000 and Michael Banducci raised an addition 120,000 from the big blind. Gould thought about it, thought about it, thought about it...and folded.

Natives Are Getting Restless

Although the tempo here earlier was on-par for a very quick evening, things have all but screeched to a halt here at the ESPN Final Table. With things slowing down, the crowd has responded by becoming louder, as well as more anxious.

Anytime there is a big raise, or a reraise, you can hear the collective crowd hold their breathes in hope that some all-in action may be coming our way.

However, we've only had one all-in within this level, and it's been suggested that with blinds so small compared to chip stacks, that we may in fact be here for awhile.

How much more restless will the crowd get while waiting for big hands and big action? Only time will tell...
