Tommy Vedes was down to less than half his starting stack in the late stages yesterday before making a massive turnaround in the final two levels.

The WPT title holder ended the day on more than 88k and before he was even fully unbagged and stacked up today, he started gambling again.

We caught him defending his big blind against a standard open from the button before folding to a C-bet on a king-high flop. Then, when the same player raised in the very next hand, making it 2,500 to see a flop, Vedes fired back, bumping it up to 5,800 total.

When his opponent shoved for an additional 35k, Vedes reluctantly mucked, but appears ready to mix it up early and often here on Day 2.
