Spivack Leaves Weiss on Fumes
As the players were coming back on break, Martin Kabrhel wandered over from the $100,000 event and asked Shaun Deeb to take a selfie with him. He then sat down at the table beside Deeb and took some of his chips, pretending to join the tournament.
"I can play with you, right? Nobody minds?" Kabrhel joked before the dealer finally told him to move.
"Payout, 18th place. $28,000," Kabrhel added as he left the room.
"You're still down $200,000 on the day," Deeb told him.
Meanwhile, Dennis Weiss had pushed all in from the big blind on a flop of 10♦4♥8♣ and Edward Jackson Spivack called in the cutoff for his last 250,000.
Edward Jackson Spivack: A♥10♣8♦3♥
Dennis Weiss: A♦9♥6♠2♥
Spivack was ahead with top pair, while Weiss had a straight and low draw. The board ran out 9♦J♣ and Spivack remained in the lead to earn the double up.
