Jeremy Wien Rebounds From Brutal Beat
Earlier in the day we saw Jeremy Wien stand up for an all-in confrontation, with his pitted against the of an opponent.
Although he seemed calm with a chop the most likely scenario, Wien was understandably concerned about the rare possibility of his big slick being beaten by a flush.
Sure enough, the flop fell , and Wien was on the edge of a terrible suckout.
"This isn't going to happen," he pleaded to the heavens. "This can't happen."
When the arrived on the turn, his tablemates jokingly told Wien to relax, saying "it's not coming, don't worry" while the dealer burned and turned fifth street.
River:
"No!," screamed Wien, his chair toppling over in the commotion. "It really happened didn't it?"
Despite this extremely difficult beat, which dropped him to around 5,000 in chips late in the day, Wien regained his composure and returned his focus to the task at hand. Currently, Wien holds a stack of about 21,000, which is good for a little more than half the average. With work still left to do, Wien knows that the most harrowing hand of this tournament has already been dealt, and after surviving the mother of all tilts he is ready to return for Day 2 tomorrow.
