Praz Bansi's His Way Up

Bracelet winner Praz Bansi is one of the early front runners with 50,000. He turned up two hours late and immediately 3-bet the big stack on his table four hands in a row to get himself up to about 15,000.

The big hand that made the difference was when he flat-called that same player's raise with {8-?}

and they saw a {8-?}

flop. Bansi got his stack in against {A-Clubs}

, which held to put him a great early position.
