"I'm running out of time"- Phil Laak
With Ben Tollerene making it 18,000 to see a flop, we saw Phil Laak move all in for 94,000. After some mild tanking Tollerene made the call with queen high, 
to be exact. Tollerene was ahead as all Laak was able to produce was 
, but we still had five cards to see.
With a 
flop Laak had plenty of cards that could come to give him the hand. With the 
on the turn, Laak hit a straight and was safe from being eliminated. A meaningless 
rolled off the deck for the river.
After the hand Laak exclaimed he was "running out of time" and needed to make a move sooner or later. He rationalized that if he had 20,000 or so more chips he would have been able to get Tollerene to fold. Laak now has a little more room to play, but he is still pretty short stacked.
