Take Me Back To The Start

Level 9 : 400/800, 75 ante

Travell Thomas busted his first bullet early on, then quickly fired another.

He did find a way to double up during the last level, but after picking up pocket kings and three-betting, he got the call from a player with {a-}{j-}. They eventually got it all in with Thomas' kings well in front, but an ace on the river spoiled his high hopes for a run up the chip count ladder.

He's back down to 30,000 in chips and starting to sound a lot like Phil Hellmuth.

"I hate poker," he said. "If it weren't for luck, you guys would have no shot."
