Event 10 (Flight 1G): Green's Grabbing More Pots, Trending Upward

Event 10 ($60 No Limit Hold'em $50,000 Guarantee)
Level 10 (Blinds 500/1,000/100)
Total Flight 1G Entries: 170

Total Event 10 Entries: 946
Flight 1G Players Remaining: 64

It's unusual for a player to be featured in back-to-back posts during "live coverage," but Vince Green (Boynton Beach, FL) continues to make a run towards bagging a large number.  Already haven picked up a handful of pots since we last featured him, Green just eliminated another player in the field, as he opened the pot for a min-raise, and was called by an unknown player in small blind.  

The dealer fanned out a flop of 5♠ 5 6, and the player in the small blind immediately went all-in for just over 15,000.  Green announced a call pretty quickly, and would be close to even money, holding 2 2♠ against the J 10 of his opponent (two overs and a flush draw).  The 3♣ on the turn gave Green an advantage heading to the river, and the Q on the river gave him the pot.  Green is now over 290,000, a stack that would crack the top ten of official counts having already bagged.

It should be mentioned that Flight 1H just completed it's first level of the day, with (60) total entries already to enter in the first (20) minutes of the day.
