We arrived to find Bryan Campanello mid-tank against Alec Czitron. There was a significant pile of chips already in the center of the table and the completed board read 
. Campanello checked the river and Czitron moved all in for 185,000. Campanello had 176,000 in front of him, meaning this was a bet for the World Series of Poker bracelet winner's tournament life.
Campanello was in the tank for roughly three minutes before plopping chips past the betting line, signifying a call.
"Good call," said Czitron, rolling over 
.
Campanello showed 
for a higher two pair of aces and jacks. He was awarded the double up and now has around 590,000 in chips. Czitron, on the other hand, was left crippled at just 9,000.
