In the Nick of Time

Championship Event
$3300 + $200 NL

While play was hand for hand (11 hands over 30 minutes) Nicholas Guagenti doubles again through Gregory Merson, one of the big stacks.

On a board of 2♠ 6♣ 7♦ A♥, Guagenti leads out on the turn and Merson calls. The turn is the 9♦ and Guagenti checks. Merson pushes all in and Guagenti snap calls with the nuts, showing a straight with 10♣ 8♦.

Merson tables A♦ K♦ and ships 130k. Guagenti's slowly building his stack and has more than 400k after being one of the short stacks before the bubble.
