Back In The Black

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

Fresh off a runner-up finish in the €250+20 End of Month Event at the 2016 Fitzwilliam Card Club back in Dublin, Irishman Andy Black, who famously finished fifth in the 2005 World Series of Poker Main Event, is taking a kick at the EPT Grand Final can here today.

He's nursing a little above a starting stack like a veteran pro as well, having just fired in a 1,200-chip bet from under the gun that got called by both blinds. They all carefully checked the {a-Spades}{5-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} flop, but after the blinds tapped the table on the {8-Spades} turn, Black fired again, making it 2,000.

The blinds folded and Black inched a little more above starting.
