Derwiche went into the tank for a long time before saying, "Your heart goes 'boom boom boom'" and Jacobson cracked a smile.
"You don't have a king," Derwiche then said.
"If I don't have a king, then you have a king," Jacobson replied quickly.
Eventually Derwiche folded and Jacobson raked in this important pot.

we saw Jason Mercier in the big blind check call a bet of 50,000 from Ben Tollerene on the button. The river came the
and Mercier checked. Tollerene tossed in two 100,000 chips and Mercier huffed and puffed facing the all in. Mercier, with under 150,000 behind, tanked for several minutes before releasing his hand. Tollerene, who busted but bought back in today, is up to over 500,000 on his second bullet. Tollerene, who already collects all the money in the high stakes cash games online, got over to Europe to collect some more here it appears.
Jeremy Ausmus was playing the Estrellas Main Event (where he made the money) today, but just busted and bought straight in for the €50,000 Super High Roller. He's the only new player to enter since out last update, a lot of other players busted and bought back in as you can see in the following list.
Martin Kabrhel and JC Alvarado have also busted, but haven't bought back in (yet). We ran into Alvarado in the hall way and he told us his neighbor Mike Watson limp reraised and Alvarado got it in with pocket eights. Watson had pocket kings and that hand held up.
