Chin Up, Then Chip Up
Level 9
: 600/1,200, 0 ante
Some of those returning to super-short stacks today have already hit the rail during the first few hands of play, Daniel Makowsky among them. Meanwhile Daniel Idema just survived an all in to improve his status slightly, although he remains in the danger zone with less than 5,000 chips.
His table mate Chad Brown is providing encouragement, however. Brown started the day with a top five stack of 46,300, and still sits with about that amount.
"Keep on doing that," said Brown of Idema's double-up, "and before you know it they'll have to go all in against you."
