Big Stax 1500 (Day 3): Stagnant

Level 29 - Blinds 100,000/200,000/25,000

Since returning from break, the chips counts have changed by just thousands.  There have been three flops in the last 20 minutes, with a lot of blinds and ante stealing.  In the first hand back from break, after Danny Warchol raised form the small blind, Jonas Wexler shipped for over 6,000,000.  Warchol tanked briefly and folded.

Mike Dentale is on fumes with with just over 10 big blinds (1,600,000), and got a way from a potential hand that would send him home.  In a blind v. blind situation, Jonas put in enough to cover Dentale, and Mike thought for a while.  He finally folded, showing a pair of fours, while Jonas showed him a pair of fives.  He would of been in a terrible spot, but is still alive.
