The Paul Tedeschi, Roger Hairabedian match has been a slow affair and little room had grown between the two players, until now.
They played out a hand at a pretty quick hand just now until it slowed on the river.
Tedeschi raised to 9,000 pre flop and went on to bet 10,000, 24,000 and 45,000 on each street of a board.
Hairabedian quickly called down to the river and there he paused. He took five minutes to think, all the while chatting to his opponent in French, and then called.
Tedeschi smiled and flipped up for a straight. Hairabedian showed and seemed to lament the hand.
With only one match remaining in play from the round of sixteen, the other winners are gearing up to play their matches for the round of eight. Once a victor is decided from the Paul Tedeschi vs. Roger Hairabedian match, the round of sixteen will officially come to a close.
