Event 1: $500 + $60 Deep Stack NL (2 Re-entry)
Eric Siegel (Melville, NY), one of the top lieutenants of PPI, is running good at Event 1 after his failed bluff turns into a big pot.
Siegel and his opponent get all the money in preflop and Siegel's 10 J is dominated by A J. A flop of Q Q 9 gives Siegel an open ended straight draw with two cards to go.
The turn is a brick, but Siegel's good fortune is capped with a 10 on the river for the winning hand.
"I knew the re-buy was over," says Siegel who goes from 38k to 80k with one card, "what can I say, it was bluff gone good."
Level 8 (400/800/75 ante) continues.
