Calamusa Continues Climbing

After finding himself near a half-million in chips around an hour ago, Pierre Calamusa had chipped up to over 700,000 before the most recent break. He has since continued to build his stack with the bubble looming near.

In a recent hand, Alex Whitenstall opened to 23,000 from the cutoff and Pierre Calamusa announced he was all in from the small blind. The big blind folded and Whitenstall chose not to commit the rest of his chips, resulting in Calamusa taking down the pot to bring his stack to around 900,000.
