Chrisp Crippled, Making a Comeback
In one of the last hands at the previous level, Reza Yazdi made it 225,000 on the button, and Max Chrisp called in the small blind. Chrisp led out for 375,000 on the 
flop, and Yazdi made it 775,000. Chrisp called, and the turn was a 
.
"Oh man," Chrisp said as he pushed forward 1.025 million. "I didn't want to get in a big pot with you."
A big pot got bigger as Yazdi jammed for 2.47 million, and Chrisp called.
Chrisp: 
Yazdi: 
Yazdi had top pair and an open-ended straight draw, while Chrisp had kings up. The river brought a 
to counterfeit Chrisp.
"Are you f****** kidding me?" he yelled in disbelief.
Stacks were counted down, and Chrisp had 70,000 remaining. He swore repeatedly, but good fortune followed. Chrisp found himself all in three straight times and he won all of them, the last time holding with 
against the 
of Yazdi despite a two-club flop. He's now back to a fighting chance.
