Guay Sweats Pay Jump
Level 26
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
The action was picked up when the floor was called over for a clock called on David Guay who had only 15,000 in chips left behind in a pot of roughly 1,500,000. The flop showed Q♣10♦8♦, and after the 30-second countdown was at its final seconds, Guay checked from under the gun to his Howard Mash on the button who tossed out 60,000.
Guay was given five-seconds to act, and at the one second mark, made the call for his tournament life.
David Guay: A♣8♥
Howard Mash: 6♦6♠
The board ran out J♣5♠ and the flopped pair of eights held up for Guay to score a full double up and stay alive.
