$175 NLH $100,000 GTD (Day 2): Calculating The Odds, Gity Off To A Strong Day 2 Start

$200 No Limit Hold'em
$100,000 Guaranteed
Level 14 (Blinds 1,200/2,400/400)
Total Entries: 650
Players Remaining: 80


Tom Gity (Pompano Beach, FL) went a short period without recording any tournament results, but has since been experiencing some of the best run good of his career.

Brian Harris was the only player of the tournament to bag two Day 2 stacks (with his larger stack put in play this afternoon), but his efforts to cash were just thwarted by Tom Gity.  Gity, who came into Day 2 with 235,400, is now just shy of 300,000.  As we passed Table 1, Tom wanted to know what the odds were, of him making a sixth straight final table.  His last five recorded cashes since May 1st have all been of the final table variety, including a chop of last month's $200 No Limit Hold'em ($100,000 GTD).  Tom had been away from the tables for a small period at the beginning of this year, but has since caught fire since returning.  His career earnings are now just shy of $195,000, with a fifth place finish in this tournament, helping him eclipse the prestigious $200,000 lifetime earnings mark.

Tom Gity - 290,000 (120bb)
