George Saca Gaining Momentum

[user38449]

George Saca is quickly making a case for himself as the Day 2 MVP. George started the day with just 11,400 in chips -- the third smallest stack of the field. He now has close to 100,000 chips and is one of our final 11 players.

Throughout the day, he's maneuvered the short stack like a seasoned pro, taking down pot after pot with well-timed raises and selective aggression. Most recently, he took 27,000 from Dustin Fox as the two battled in the blinds. Fox opened for 12,000 from the small blind and Saca made the call in the big.

and Fox led out with a 15,000 bet. A fraction of a section after Fox had pushed his raise across the betting line, Saca moved all in. Fox folded after some considerable thought, and Saca showed him {K-Hearts}
