Sahan Needs to Cash for a Plane Ticket Home
Level 16
: 3,000/6,000, 500 ante
Ilker Sahan has never cashed a tournament before. He shared that he doesn't have a ticket home and he lost all of his other money in the casino.
"I need to cash for a plane ticket home," shared Sahan.
The good news is that a min-cash is not only double, but more than triple the buy-in with a payout of €3,400 guaranteed to each of the top 72 players in the field.
The bad news is that there are 87 players left and he still has to fade 15 eliminations. Sahan does have a stack of around 120,000 and if he decides to try to fold into the cash it could get dicey for him. He may either not be able to fade being eliminated if this is his strategy or just wind up with a few big blinds to spin up after the bubble breaks.
