FSPC Event #14 (Day 2): From One Big Blind On The Bubble, To Thirty After Dinner

2018 Florida State Poker Championship
Event #14 | $1,500 No Limit Hold'em ($500,000 GTD)
Level 18 (Blinds 4,000/8,000/8,000)
Total Event #14 Entries: 564
Event #14 Players Remaining: 43


Tom Gity (Pompano Beach, FL) was in real jeopardy to bubble this event, but a number of things fell his way, and he now has bigger goals in mind.

Right after the power outage, Tom Gity (Pompano Beach, FL) would return from the unscheduled break with just 5,500.  The blinds at the time were 2,000/4,000/4,000, and with his big blind approaching, Gity would shove for 5,500 (after Jacobo Fernandez opened from early position).  After action folded around to Juan Martinez in the small blind, he would three-bet to 24,000.  Fernandez then four-bet to 64,000, causing Martinez to fold his A♠ Q face up.  

Gity would turn over A8, up against Fernandez's K K♠, and looked to be heading out the door.  The A♣ A Q♠ flop helped him more than triple up...thanks to Martinez folding what would have been the flopped nuts.  Since tripling up, Gity has been able to continue the spin, and now sits with 240,000 after dinner.

Tom Gity - 240,000 (30bb)
