Demasi Destroys Competition
Level 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Simone Demasi started today with a healthy stack, but has already added more than 50 big blinds in chips. In his latest endeavor, he opened from early position to 13,000. Gregory Chenet flat-called from the hijack before Alexandre Reard put his last 122,000 chips in the middle from the small blind.
Demasi asked for an exact count and made the call after he received it from the dealer. Chenet got out of the way and a showdown was held.
Alexandre Reard: A?J?
Simone Demasi: K?K?
Reard was looking for an ace to stay alive in the tournament, but no help came on the 6?2?Q?9?4? runout. The newest addition to Demasi's stack means he is now nearing 150 big blinds.
