Event 12: Tales from the Re-Entry Line

$260 + $40 Deep Stack NLH (Re-Entry)

Paulino (center) Preparing his Second Bullet

Victor Paulino (Boston, MA) is a little shy to share his bustout hand while standing in the re-entry line, but then reconsidered, "you inspired me to win it," he says.

With level 8 (400/800/75 ante) winding down, Paulino shipped 8k with K 3 offsuit and "didn't even get a sweat," against A8.

Others in the re-entry line include:

Taisiya Kuznetsova (New York, NY), who waited in line, played a few hands (5 minutes of poker) and now is back in line after losing with pocket fives vs K 10.

Bob Teti (Washington Twp., NJ) lost with top pair, worse kicker, to the same player for the third time.

Harry Korotki (Owings Mills, MD) busted for the second day in a row with AQ against a player who
boated on the river.

Players who join the field now get a fresh 25k stack with blinds at 500/1k/100 ante and levels increase to 30 minutes long.
