Just in Time for Filtz

Steve Gross

As his stack was beginning to dwindle, Justin Filtz has found a crucial double up at just the right time, his stack now boasting 178,000 and looking good for day two.

The action began with Filtz himself, his raise of 3,600 being repopped by Dario Minieri who made it 11,000 to play.

Steve Gross then sprung into action a couple of seats down, pushing all in for 58,000.

Although Minieri passed, Filtz made the call, his {A-Spades}

board later and Gross was done, a casher here today, but a day one exit nonetheless.
