Breaking Even
Jason Zausner just went from short stack to breaking even in the blink of an eye.
When we arrived at the table, three players were already all in, including Zausner who had both of the players barely covered, and Ian O'Leary was in the tank. O'Leary commands one of the larger stacks in the room with a quarter of a million, but he decided not to gamble, folding .
Zausner:
Opponent 1:
Opponent 2:
Zausner's hand held up as the board came , and he earned two bounty chips to give him a total of five. Ironically enough, if O'Leary wanted to gamble a bit, he would've won the whole kit-n-kaboodle.
