Level 7 : 300/600, 75 ante

They loved Event #1 Champ Jerry Calvaneso at his table when he fell down to 7,000 in chips right off the bat.

"They hate me now," he said, having built his stack back up to double what he started with.

Calvaneso used his unique skills and a lot of luck to get there, flopping top pair against a straight, but managing to make a flush on the river to win the biggest pot he's played all day and begin to make a run at his second title of the series.
