Too Good To Be True

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante
Fabio Buomaguro
Fabio Buomaguro

Toronto, Canada's Fabio Buomaguro had not played poker for two years before registering today.

He hasn't forgotten how to play, but the details of his meteoric rise to 80,000 and into the chip lead over the past level seemed to escape him for a moment.

He tried floating some fabulous fabrication that involved queens over jacks and set over set, but it all seemed less than plausible. Then, he suddenly recalled catching a four on the river to turn {7-}{5-} into a straight in a big pot.

If Buomaguro's story sounds too good to be true, that's probably because it is.
