WIth the turn reading 
, Martin Kozlov checked in a middle position and Tom McCormick fired 52,500, presumably a pot-sized bet. McCormick had 71,500 behind and Kozlov stacked chips so that he could put McCormick all in. After about a minute, he put them in and McCormick called right away.
Kozlov: 
McCormick: 
McCromick turned a straight but Kozlov could still win, should he hit an ace, seven or a nine. The river was the 
and McCormick dodged the lethal bullets to score a big double.
"I'm not used to so many chips," he smiled when he started sorting his belongings into proper stacks.

and they ended up all in for Valerstein's remaining 41,500.
Valerstein: 
Gryko:
