"$175 NLH $100,000 GTD" (Flight 1A): Joshua Dichkewich Eliminates Frank Scala, Climbs The Leaderboard

$175 No Limit Hold'em
$100,000 Guaranteed
Level 10 (Blinds 500/1,000/200)
Total Flight 1A Entries: 105
Flight 1A Players Remaining: 47

Joshua Dichkewich (West Palm Beach, FL) has over $14,000 in lifetime tournament earnings, but hasn't recorded a cash since August of 2017.

Frank Scala (Boca Raton, FL) was sitting with a stack just over chip average to start Level 10, but was just eliminated from Flight 1A play.  After doubling up Donald Williams (as his A♠ 10♠ was bested by J♦ 10♦), Scala would shove 11,900 over an open from Joshua Dichkewich.  Players folded back around to Joshua, who made the call, and put Scala at risk:

Scala: A♣ 6♦
Dichkewich: A♦ J♠

Runout: 10♠ 8♠ 7♠ 8♣ 8♦

The flop made a come from behind win even more difficult for Scala, who would play his final hand in Flight 1A.  With that pot, Joshua eclipses the 100,000 mark, and finds himself as one of the top stacks in the remaining field.

Joshua Dichkewich - 118,000 (118bb)
