Cappello Trying to Rebuild

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 400 ante

Joe Cappello got his last 6,500 in preflop and was called in two spots. The board ran out {10-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{q-Spades} and Cappello paired up with {10-}{8-} to beat a player with {7-Spades}{6-Clubs}.

Moments later, Cappello was all in again with {4-Spades}{4-Diamonds} and at risk against {a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}. Again, the board favored the former Borgata Winter Poker Open champ: {3-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}. He still doesn't have a ton of chips, but he's got a definite pulse with over 50,000.
