FSPC Main Event (Day 3): Daniels Stops Slide, Eliminates Ruberto In 5th Place ($34,689)

2017 Florida State Poker Championships
Event 20 - $1,500 No Limit Hold'em ($500,000 GTD)
Level 29 (Blinds 50,000/100,000/15,000)
Total Entries: 548
Players Remaining: 4/548


Tony Ruberto (Miami, FL) 5th Place ($34,689)

Tony Ruberto was the shortest stack returning from dinner, and continued to trend down as the level reached it's halfway mark.  With only (13) big blinds, Tony shoved from the button after action folded to him, with Abbey Daniels calling out of the big blind.  Abbey's A 9 was well ahead of Ruberto's 8 9, but the J 7♣ 3♣ flop did add a few outs to Ruberto's hand.  The 5♠ on the turn brought even more cards into play for Tony, but the board pairing on the river would end his final table run.

Tony entered this tournament yesterday afternoon, utilizing the Day 2 buy-in option, and running up the 30,000 starting stack into a final table finish ($34,689).

Abbey Daniels - 2,700,000
Tony Ruberto - 5th Place - $34,689
