Marcus Wins Classic Race for Knockout
Level 10
: 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Fresh off of his second final table of the series in Event #57: $600 Deep Stack No-Limit Hold'em, where he finished fifth for the biggest cash of his career at $78,793, Daniel Marcus is hungry for more.
After the cutoff raised to 4,000, Marcus reraised to 15,000 from the small blind. A four-bet shove for 41,000 came from early position, and after the cutoff got out of the way, Marcus made the call with his opponent covered.
Opponent: 
Daniel Marcus: 
In the classic race, Marcus pulled ahead quickly on the 
flop. The 
turn and 
river changed nothing, and Marcus' pair of aces were still best. He raked in the pot while his opponent was sent to the rail.
