DeMaci: From Chip Suicide to Title Contention

mnuwwarah

Level 25 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante

Chris DeMaci expected to be out on Day 1.

Chris DeMaci, currently sitting in last place of the six remaining players, has certainly come much further in this tournament than he expected. He tried busting out of the tournament on this amusing hand from Day 1, but fate kept him in the tournament. He's certainly capitalized on the opportunity.
