After losing a large, three-bet pot to Fredrik Andersson during the last level, Jason Mercier received a bit of a needle from Kitty Kuo.
"He bluffed you," Kuo told the Team PokerStars Pro.
Mercier disagreed, prompting Kuo to ask him whether or not he wanted to make a bet.
"I'll bet anything up to $1,000," Mercier told her.
"No," she responded. "I don't bet money."
There was a beat.
"What?" Mercier said, confused.
"I don't bet money," Kuo repeated.
Mercier was a bit stunned by this, and thinking that the amount was perhaps too high, he offered a smaller bet size.
"Let's just do $100."
"I don't bet money," she said for a third time.
Chris Moorman, Ruben Visser, and Matthias Tikerpe , who were also at the table, started to laugh.
"Let's bet an iPhone 5," Kuo offered.
"But that costs money," Mercier said, chuckling very loudly. "I still have the 4s. I don't know if I'm ready for the 5."
"You two should just exchange gifts," Visser interjected.
"You're betting money right now," Mercier told Kuo. "You bought in with money."
"I don't bet money," Kuo repeated once again.
Despite his curiosity — and unwillingness to go shopping for an iPhone 5 if he lost — Mercier booked the mobile bet. The two asked Andersson whether or not he was bluffing, and according to the Swede, he was not.
We hope Mr. Mercier is finally ready for the 5.
John O'Shea opened to 15,000 from middle position and Rumit Somaiya flat-called in the big blind. The flop came

O'Shea: 
Somaiya: 
There were blanks on the

England's own Jamie Burland came in for a raise on the button, Nicolas Chouity three-bet to 29,000 from the big blind, and Burland responded with a four-bet to 66,000. Chouity tanked for a minute or so, then moved all in for effectively 300,000 or so. Burland called, and the cards were turned on their backs:
Burland: 
Chouity: 
It was your standard race until the flop fell 
, giving both players straight draws. Chouity could still take the lead with an ace or a king on the turn, but the 
gave Burland a queen-high straight.
Now, only one of the two black tens remaining in the deck could eliminated Burland, and low and behold the spiked on the river. Burland shot up out of his seat in shock, then quickly composed himself, shook Chouity's hand, and wished him luck.
Chouity now sits with over 600,000 chips.

When we reached the table, Adam "Roothlus" Levy and Philipp "philbort" Gruissem were heads up on a board of 
. Gruissem led out for 60,000, and Levy bet enough to put Gruissem all in. The German tank-called, and Levy ripped over for a full house.
Gruissem shook his head, then flashed for trip fives.
"Wow," Levy said at the sight of his hand. "Sick river."
Gruissem exited the tournament area, and will likely return to The Vic tomorrow for the High Roller, while Levy is up to 410,000 chips.
Coolersville, population me brooo. Luckily was on the right side with AA vs Philbort's Kc5h on 457ccAc5. Up to 410k. #dodgeballquotesMarch 13 2013Follow
