McCormick's Miracle Run Still Alive

Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Tom McCormick
Tom McCormick

Tom McCormick was down to a couple of big blinds Saturday, but somehow spun up his stack to survive to Day 2, and now in the money, he's still here with what he and his table have said is a never-ending string of short-stack survival and double-ups.

McCormick got his last 20,000 in against Aden Salazar, and after his {a-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{5-Spades}{5-Clubs} survived against Salazar's {8-Spades}{6-Spades}{6-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} with a king on the river of the {3-Spades}{q-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} board, the boisterous McCormick stood up with his trademark glass of red wine and proclaimed "I'm 19-0-4 in all ins! I can not be defeated!!"

The room laughed, and McCormick then raised his glass and said warmly, "seriously though, here's to the rest of the players in the 10k PLO. I love you all."
