Bret Hruby Almost at One Million in Chips

Level 17 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Bret Hruby began play today with merely 65,000 and is sitting with almost 850,000 chips. To put some perspective on his massive amount of chips, the average stack right now is 150,000. Thank goodness there is an empty seat next to him, because there wouldn't be room for another player. When his table broke awhile ago, two floor men had to help him move his chips because he had so many.

Consistency has been the main thing about Hruby's game we have noticed. He doesn't over extend himself playing too many hands, he simply plays good hands and right decisions. No amount of chips is a guarantee for a bracelet, but if Hruby continues to play as well as he has been then this tournament is going to be a lot tougher than any one imagined.
