"May $100,000 GTD:" All A Part Of Naso's "Heater"

"May $100,000 GTD"
$150 No Limit Hold'em Deep Stack
Level 11 (Blinds 600/1,200/200)
Total Flight 1E Entries: 247
Flight 1E Players Remaining: 82


Joseph Naso (Boca Raton, FL)

Some players like to play the "rush," when they feel as if they're experiencing a combination of good cards, and some run good to go along.  Joseph Naso (Boca Raton, FL) was heads up with Chanfei Cui on a flop of 9 6♠ 5♣, and managed to get his stack in (80,000), with Cui calling his shove.  Naso seemed disappointed after Cui made the call, but would be in good shape, holding 9 5♠ against Changfei's 7♠ 7♣.  The turn and river would miss Cui, giving Naso the pot, which was worth close to 130,000.

Just moments later, Naso would call a sizable raise out of the big blind, telling his table mates that he was "playing the heater."  Naso then led out on the ten high flop, watching as his opponents folded behind, and chipping up to over 175,000.  It looks as if Naso is in uncharted territory at the moment, with only one cash on his resume, coming during a "daily" event at Seminole Hard Rock Hollywood in 2014.  Regardless of prior experience coming in, Naso is playing carefree and aggressive, a good combination when sitting with one of the big stacks.
