With just 70 players remaining in the All-Stars for Starlight tournament, the bubble is officially looming. But that’s not to say there’s a huge amount of tension in the room – it’s still a $160 tournament, after all, and players seem quick to laugh as well.
We just witnessed such an occasion on Table 68. Eric Dahan was facing a huge bet from John Palmer – the current chip leader – and he asked, “Will you show if I fold?”
John’s only response was to shrug, and Eric went ahead and folded his hand. John mucked his cards which was followed by this exchange:
“I thought you said you’d show if I folded!”
“I just shrugged!”
“True, but I thought it was more of a ‘yes’ shrug than a ‘no’ shrug…”
