After Being Down To One Big Blind, Fernandez Goes Over 1.1 Million

Level 23 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Last year, it was champion Greg Merson who was down to three big blinds on the bubble before running his stack back up and eventually winning the event. This year, Pedro Fernandez could very well be that story. Fernandez was down to just one big blind a couple of levels ago, before quintupling up and then doubling up the very next hand. He's since run his stack up to 1.16 million in chips, with this latest pot going his way.

From under the gun, Cary Marshall raised to 65,000. Fernandez three-bet to 150,000 from the big blind, and Marshall made the call. The flop came down {K-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{7-Spades}, and Fernandez checked. Marshall bet 125,000, and Fernandez called.

The turn was the {J-Hearts}, and both players checked to see the {6-Diamonds} land on the turn. Fernandez fired 300,000, and Marshall responded with "That's strong!" He then thought for a little bit, and folded. to give Fernandez the pot.
