The board read {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{10-Spades}{k-Spades}{7-Spades} with over 400,000 in the middle already.

Robert Cheung was sitting in the tank from the middle position after he had checked and Preben Stokkan had bet 400,000 on the button. Cheung had 330,000 behind so would be putting his tournament life at risk if he made the call.

"I know you bluff, you were down to only 5,000 yesterday! Cheung said to Stokkan referring to his huge comeback yesterday to end with the chip lead.

Stokkan didn't respond.

"If this wasn't the Main Event, I would have called already," Cheung muttered.

Still no response of Stokkan and in the end, Cheung opted to fold.
