Is It a Bird? Is It a Plane? Is it an Ex-Packers Quarterback Legend? No, It's POY Leader Dan Zack!

A huge boost for the 2022 World Series of Poker player of the year came, as Dan "Brett_Favre" Zack has taken out an opponent and gave himself a great chance of adding more Player of the Year (POY) points to his already healthy lead.

After James "pipedream16" Romero opened to 8,000 from the button, Zack piled his stack back towards Romero, who called all in for his last 61,000 chips.

When the board ran out {9-Spades}{7-Spades}{j-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{9-Hearts}, it was Zack's {k-Clubs}{10-Hearts} that trumped the {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts} of Romero, busting him before the money. You could say his pipe dream of a bracelet is over, for now.
