Platt, Kerstetter Looking for Money Finishes

Level 15 : 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Jamie Kerstetter and [Removed:139] are seated at the same table, and both still have chips with two eliminations to go until the money bubble bursts.

Platt tells PokerNews that he's still playing well, consistent with his statements throughout the RGPS Jamul Casino Main Event.

Kerstetter, however, tells PokerNews that it might be quite awhile before players at Table 2 get to witness an example of Platt's poker skills on display.

PokerNews will keep an eye on how things develop at Table 2 with the money bubble looming.
