Event 8: Muffins Moving Up the Leaderboard

$400 + $50 Deep Stack NL           

On a flop of Q 9 7, Matt 'muffins' Mazzeo moved in, putting Oscar Castagna (New York, NY) to the test.  Oscar made the call all-in showing A7 off for bottom pair.

 Matt Mazzeo

Muffins was out in front with QJ for top pair.  The last two came running Tens and Oscar was busted in 28th place ($1,177).

Matt chipped up to about 1.2 million, good for second in chips.

With 27 players left, they broke the fourth table so they're now at three tables of nine.
