FSPC Main Event (Flight 1B): Nassetta All Smiles, Putting Last Hand Behind Him

2017 Florida State Poker Championships

Event 20 - $1,500 No Limit Hold'em ($500,000 GTD)

Level 2 (Blinds 75/150/25)

Total Flight 1B Entries: 74

Keith Nassetta (Boca Raton, FL)

One of the greatest things about tournament poker is the fact that there is "always tomorrow."  Whether it's a game with friends, online at home, or in a brick and mortar casino...poker tournaments are always available.  That allows for players to quickly put certain things behind them, like the hand Keith Nassetta (Boca Raton, FL) experienced last night, late in Flight 1A.

During the final level of play for the flight, Nassetta looked to be in great shape to double up to chip average.  He was all-in and at risk against Justin Fawbush, but held middle set, against Justin's bottom set.  Justin had only one out heading to the river, but in crushing fashion for Nassetta, would hit that card on the river.  Fawbush made quads to rip the hand away from Nassetta, who was left shaking his head as he exited the poker room.

Nassetta is back in the field now, and happens to be all smiles, despite the unfortunate spot he ran into.  The field is currently full of Isle Poker notables, many of which we see on an everyday basis, during the monthly recurring schedule:
