David Olshan headed into the late levels of last nights second flight with a six-figure stack.
However, just before the close of play he lost half of it. He bagged 54,400, but figured he could do better today, taking advantage of the option to re-enter and take the best stack he can bag forward to Day 2.
Here they are, heading into the last level of the night and Olshan's got six figure's again. He got there three-betting the big blind to 21,000 over a 7,000 button open. The button flatted and Olshan c-bet the flop, making it 25,000.
The button flatted and when the rolled off, Oslhan shoved for 51,400. The button let off a little steam about how horrible the turn card was before folding. He later claimed kings.
In the meantime, Olshan will head into the final level of the night hoping he can bag at least the 125,000 he has right now, improving his chances on Sunday immensely.
Chris Damick is running unseasonably hot. First aces hold, then a set. He can do no wrong.
In fact, he's on 400,000 and threatening the big chip lead Canada's Alex Avdelopoulos put together in the first flight when he bagged 440,000.
