FSPC Main Event (Day 3): Mayer-Backer Drops Below Ten Bigs, But Doubles Through Daryl Jace

2017 Florida State Poker Championships
Event 20 - $1,500 No Limit Hold'em ($500,000 GTD)
Level 30 (Blinds 60,000/120,000/20,000)
Total Entries: 548
Players Remaining: 3/548

Daryl Jace opened to 250,000 from the button, with Sam Mayer-Backer three-bet shoving for 1,100,000.  Josias Santos folded his hand, and Jace quickly made the call, and would be the favorite (Jace held A♣ K against Mayer-Backer's Q 10).  The 10♣ 5 2♠ J 2♣ runout had all of the dramatics, as Sam flopped a pair, but Jace turned a combo draw to go along with his pair outs.  The board would pair on the river though, giving Sam's rail something to cheer about for the first time in a while.

Daryl Jace - 10,200,000
Sam Mayer-Backer - 2,400,000
