The Local Legend
They just don't get any more legendary in this locale than the enigmatic Jason Nablo.
He's a true local hero with too many deep runs to count and the leader on the property's all-time cashes list. However, something seems to have changed lately. Nablo is still building big stacks, he's just blowing them up a little more often than he did before.
"I'm trying some new stuff," he said. "I'm really going for it. I'm tired of sitting around being patient and watching my stack melt away. When I get chips now I want more. I want to win the whole thing."
So far it hasn't worked out quite like Nablo has planned. He was the clubhouse leader in the massive $125 Reentry event here at Summer Slam, but fizzled before the real money was on the table - The local boy's hopes and dreams floated a way like a barrel over the Falls.
Yet still, he soldiers on here, in this Summer Slam Main Event. And don't look now, but he is actually putting together a bit of a zero to hero story once again.
Nablo went to dinner with 24,000 and now has about 100,000 more than that. He picked up big slick, jacks, and managed to crack top two hitting an open ender on the turn for heaps.
Luck is on his side for now, and he's building the stack again. It's just a matter of this old dog getting some new tricks to work.
