Level 5 : 100/200, 25 ante
Mike Rellinger
Mike Rellinger

Mike Rellinger, who tripled up in the early levels of the early flight today, then busted before bagging, is back here in the 6 p.m.

He's off to a fast start again, sitting on an early double and hoping for a different result.

This time he won a big pot with a rivered set of threes, despite his value bet remaining uncalled, then he flopped two pair in a battle of the blinds to drag another one.

He ended up with {k-}{7-} all in preflop without looking and held versus {q-}{5-} to push up over 50,000 in chips.
