Strubel Strutting his StuffScott Strubel doesn't remember the specifics, but he doesn't have to, as he counts a monster stack of nearly 150k to become the unofficial chip leader.
Jenn Sherwood is the table's version of Rain Man and recites his big hand verbatim for him. "The flop is 3,6,3. One player is all-in and two others flat (call)," says Sherwood the 2009 Borgata Poker Open Ladies 4th place finisher.
Sherwood recaps that Strubel turns a full house with pocket 10s and gets the other remaining player to commit his last 50k drawing dead. It's a 125k pot, putting Strubel in another chip stratosphere with 143k.
"I've been on a sick run," says the Woodbridge, NJ resident. "I've had a nice little two weeks."
In addition to a great start to Event 1, Strubel says he won the Borgata 15k, 7 pm Wednesday tournament two weeks ago and had a top three finish 4 days ago in the same event.
"I also have a couple of Survivor wins as well," adding, "I love this place."
Unfortunately Strubel will have to record his own hand histories the rest of the way as Sherwood is knocked out shortly after Strubel's big haul.
Level 8 is underway (400/800/75 ante) and is the last one before the dinner break.
