| Joseph Degli (Boca Raton, FL) looked as if he'd be min-cashing in this tournament, but has rebuilt his stack from less than one big blind. |
We've all heard the story of players who end up with just one big blind...or one ante, that come back to make a deep run in an event. Earlier this afternoon, it was Joseph Degli (Boca Raton, FL) who assumed the "chip and a chair" story. After doubling up an opponent, Degli was left with just 7,000 in chips, with blinds at 5,000/10,000/1,000. He would then proceed to get pocket aces the very next hand to double, but still only had three big blinds. It would be pocket jacks the next hand...then pocket kings just a few hands later...and before you could blink, Delgi was up to ten big blinds.
Joseph currently sits with just over 200,000, which is still under the twenty big blind mark, but does have fold equity with the stack. More importantly, he's laddered to pay spots since being left with less than one big blind, so everything must feel like a free roll.
