Isle Open Event 7 (Day 2): Michael Amato Exits In 8th Place ($6,915)

2017 Isle Open | Event #7
$360 No Limit Hold'em | $200,000 GTD
Level 31 (Blinds 60,000/120,000/20,000)
Total Entries: 941
Players Remaining: 7


Michael Amato (Boca Raton, FL) managed to grind out the short stack through two player eliminations, but was unable to get the key double he needed to get back into things.

After Frank Lerczak's elimination, Michael Amato (Boca Raton, FL) was left the shortest stack at the table, and he'd shove for 1,300,000 from middle position.  Steve McKoy would call (next to act), as the rest of the players behind released their hands.  Amato was in rough shape against Steve, holding A♠ 10 against McKoy's A K.  The board would run out 7 4 2 J♣ A♣, and the winner of this same event from the 2017 Battles At The Beach would be eliminated.
