McKenzie Missteps
Jesse McKenzie managed to move over 200,000 during today's action, but has now fallen under 100,000. Plenty of those chips went the way of Emilio Triunfo, who recently almost tripled up.
The hand in question began when a middle position player moved all in for 13,000. Folded to Triunfo in the small blind, he called, leaving himself with around 30,000 behind. McKenzie was in the big blind and slid out enough 5,000-denomination chips to put Triunfo all in. Triunfo made a quick call.
"Well played," said McKenzie as Triunfo tabled his cards.
Triunfo:
McKenzie:
Middle Position:
"I'll probably win," said McKenzie in jest.
Unfortunately McKenzie wouldn't have his way though, with a board ensuring that Triunfo scooped up the pot, one player was eliminated and a dent was put in McKenzie's stack.
