"February $100,000" (Day 2): Aristizabal Is Back Where It All Began

"February $100,000"
$360 No Limit Hold'em | $100,000 GTD
Level 15 (Blinds 1,500/3,000/500)
Total Entries: 352
Players Remaining: 53

Jorge Aristizabal (Coral Springs, FL) is second a "second chance" that doesn't always happen in poker tournaments, losing half of his Day 2 starting stacks, and then recouping everything in one hand.

Jorge Aristizabal (Coral Springs, FL) started the day as one of the chip leaders, entering Day 2 with 222,200.  The first three hours of Jorge's day weren't particularly kind to him, as he found his Day 2 starting stack cut in half.  Moments ago, Aristizabal was all-in and at risk at Table 2, but was in dominating position with A A♣ against A♠ K♣.  The board would runout 3♣ 2♣ 7♣ 9♣ Q♣, helping him lock up the win before the river even hit the felt.  Jorge was all-in for 107,400, and after his stack was matched (and the rest of the pot was pushed his way), he'd find himself with 225,000.  Aritizabal gets a "restart" of sorts, and now sits comfortably with over seventy big blinds.

Jorge Aristizabal - 225,000 (75bb)
