Event 2 (Day 2): "It Doesn't Mean Anything Until I Win"

Event 2 ($360 No Limit Hold'em $100,000 GTD)
Level 19 (Blinds 4,000/8,000/1,000)
Total Entries: 583
Players Remaining: 37
Chip Average: 315,000


Slum Donkey's David Moreno and Raminder Singh (Delray Beach, FL)

"It doesn't mean anything until I win," were the exact words out of the mouth of Raminder Singh, this after winning the largest pot of the tournament to date.  Singh called the all-in of both Joseph Duchman and an unknown player, holding A♠ K♠ against J♠ J♣ and Q♠ Q♣.  Singh, who had been grinding a stack of 100,000-200,000 for most of the day, had both players covered.  He'd need a some help from the runout, and help he would get, as a K spiked on the flop, and things ran out clean from there.  Raminder is not the chip leader with 630,000, but he's top three at the moment, and right back in a position he's extremely comfortable with (atop the leaderboard at the Isle).
