Rubin Doubles Through Esposito
Level 11
: 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
John Esposito is requesting thorough media coverage of his journey through Day 2, and immediately after that request found himself in a couple of tricky spots.
In the first hand, Esposito raised on the small blind, and got reraised all-in from a player in early position. Esposito mucked and preserved his 170k-plus stack.
Two hands later, Esposito and Aviel Rubin got in preflop for all of Rubin's remaining 17,500 chips.
Aviel Rubin: 
John Esposito: 
It was the wrong end of a cooler for Esposito, who found no help with the 
runout. The one-time WSOP bracelet winner is still sitting strong, however, with 155,000 chips.
