Sands Down To Scraps, In Danger Of 10th Place Finish
David Sands came in to today with a super-massive chip lead, and now he is the shortest stack at a table full of short stacks. Sands lost a massive pot to Jeff Gibralter and then just got scooped by Marco Oliveira in the following hand to fall into the danger zone.
Michael Yee called the big blind in middle position, Robert Campbell did the same, Sands on the button raised the pot for 88,000, Marco Oliveira went all in for 283,000 in the small blind and everyone folded besides Sands who called.

Oliveira:
Sands had the superior high hand and just had to fade low cards to scoop the pot and get it back. However, the board was not so kind and it ran out to give Oliveira a low and two pair for the scoop. It's been a long day so far for Sands and we haven't event reached the second level of the day. It will take a miracle to get back to where he was before, but stranger things have happened and with a few double ups he could be right back in it.
