$300 + $50 Deep Stack Semi-Turbo NLH (2 Re-entry)
With approximately 100 players left, the average stack is 85k, which means Jason Young and his 450k is well above average.
In fact if the final table was imminent, he would have enough chips to be more than competitive to win the tournament. And the good start is a nice way to help ease the pain of last night's painful third place elimination in Event 6.
"You see this," says Young, while pointing to the $26,713 first prize on the pay sheet. "If I get all this, the sting is gone."
Today Young won a 200k chip pot when his pocket jacks beat pocket 10s. He then added another 250k with a three-way all-in when his AK flopped an ace to beat KJ and 10 10.
