FSPC Event 1 (Day 2): Nassif Isn't Limping To The Finish Line

Elias Nassif (Plantation, FL)

Between bagging chips on Wednesday, and returning to play this afternoon, Elias Nassif (Plantation, FL) spent some time in the hospital.  Nassif severely sprained his ankle playing soccer, but was able to make it back today, with the addition of crutches.  Elias may have a little hop to his step after the last hand though, as he held A♠ A♣ on a K♣ 7♣ 4♣ flop, and had just watched Sean Glennon shove into him (having Elias covered).  Nassif quickly made the call, and would be in a pretty solid spot against Glennon's K♠ J♣.  The turn and river missed Glennon, and Elias would earn a double-up to over 1,500,000, while Glennon was left with less than five big blinds.

Elias Nassif - 1,550,000
