Event 39 - Final Table Time!
1 year ago
We're back, ready and poised to play down to the bracelet in this, the latest $1,500 NL Hold'Em final.
The tournament took its time last night to play down to the final table, resulting in the blinds being a hefty $20,000 $40,000 at the resumption of today's play.
We've already had some action at this early stage!
Beware Of Flops Bearing Gifts, Paras (OUT - 9th)
With two limpers in front of him, Jim Paras raised it up to $150,000 from the cut-off with A
J and picked up a caller in David Woo.
Woo checked the J
5
2 flop, only for Paras to move all-in on what looked like a favorable board but his 'top,top' looked considerably weaker when he found Woo playing possum, insta-calling with a juicy set of deuces in the hole.
Drawing thin, the J on the turn for Paras was massive, giving him seven outs to make a miraculous escape, but his runner runner dreams were crushed along with any thoughts of a bracelet win as the river blanked out with the 9.
Jim Paras is our first elimination, knocked out in 9th place, winning $58,290.
Paras: But I Had Top, Top!
In what was a terse finale as we approached the final table last night, David Woo was one of the more aggressive players, and so far, he has made much of the early running today,boosting his stack up from its starting position of just over $1,000,000 to over $1,700,000, which is good for the chip lead at present.
