Event 7: Project Manager Managing a Big Stack

$350 + $50 NL Re-Entry

Over on table 3, Rafique Ahmed is sitting behind a fairly large stack of chips.  He's from Dix Hills, NY, and makes a living as a project manager.  He likes to play the tournaments here at Borgata regularly.  I guess you could look at this event as a one day project.  He just has to manage his way to the win.

While I was watching, he doubled up a short-stack who was all-in with AK.  Rafique's pocket Kings were cracked when an Ace turned, but it barely put a dent in his stack.  He's still got about 160k.

Over on table 1, Larry Gold (Long Island, NY) is also doing well.  He's up to about 125k.

Down to 9 tables - 90 players remain.  36 will get paid.
