Off to the Races
Level 8
: 400/800, 800 ante
The preflop action escaped us but we do know that Neal Gay and Derek Marmen, who had 42,600, got their stacks in the middle and were in a big flip.
Derek Marmen: 
Neal Gay: 
An ace on the window looked like a gin card for Gay but it was followed by a third fishhook - 
.
Neither the 
turn nor 
river changed a thing and the stacks were counted down. Marmen barely had Gay covered, and the latter headed to the registration desk to fire another bullet.
