FSPC Event #9 (Day 2): After Buying In On Day, Michael Amato Eliminated In 13th Place ($5,064)

2018 Florida State Poker Championship
Event #9 | $1,100 No Limit Hold'em ($200,000 GTD)
Level 21 (Blinds 8,000/16,000/16,000)
Total Event #9 Entries: 341
Event #9 Players Remaining: 12


Michael Amato (Boca Raton, FL) bought into the day with just ten big blinds, but was able to turn that into a run that fell just short of the final table.

On one of the final hands of the level, Raj Vohra opened from early position, with two players making the call.  Michael Amato (Boca Raton, FL), who was in the big blind, shoved for just over 200,000.  Vohra made the call, and the two flatters released their hands.  Amato would be at risk, and behind when the cards were tabled, holding 7 7♠ against Vohra's K♠ K♣.  The runout would bring no help to Amato, who turned a Day 2 buy-in, into just over $5,000.
