"He Just Had a Meltdown"

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

Cameron Bartolotta is on all sorts of fire. In fact, he seems downright unstoppable at the moment. Just minutes after scoring a double elimination, Bartolotta was moved to a new table and repeated the feat.

It happened when the under-the-gun player limped and then an early-position player moved all in for 17,400. A middle-position player then tossed in three red T10,000 chips, which meant he was forced to raise. Bartolotta proceeded to move all in behind, the limper folded, and the middle-position player, who had about 50,000 behind, quickly called off.

Middle Position: {4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}
Bartolotta: {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}
Early Position: {a-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}

Bartolotta had woken up with another big hand, and he managed to have another player commit a ton of chips with a far inferior hand. The board ran out a clean {10-Spades}{k-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{j-Spades}{k-Spades} and Bartolotta notched another double elimination.

"He just had a meltdown," another player at the table said of the middle-position player, who had made a hasty exit from the tournament area.
