Event #11 Players Remaining: 112
Whether it's live or online, Harrison Gimbel (Jupiter, FL) is widely considered one of the top tournament players in the world. |
Harrison Gimbel (Jupiter, FL) bagged 5,200 at the end of yesterday's Day 1C, and when he approached the table this morning, a clear plan was in mind. "When he first sat down, I asked him if he was going to just re-enter," Joshua Hillock said aloud, referencing Harrison's option to surrender the chips (and re-enter with a fresh 40,000 stack).
Gimbel ended up turning that 5,600 into 42,600 over the first hour of the day, and was able to double up moments ago. When we approached Table 9, Harry O'Brien had an 11,000 bet in front of him, with both Harrison Gimbel (42,600) and Oscar Valdez (63,000) all-in. O'Brien was in the tank, and eventually got the clock called on him (by Valdes), deciding to release his hand before his time ran out.
Gimbel: A♥ A♦
Valdes: K♣ K♦
Runout: 6♥ 5♥ 2♠ 2♦ Q♦
Harrison was in the perfect spot to eclipse the 100,000 mark, and would do just that, after his aces held up through the runout.
Harrison Gimbel - 105,000 (65bb)
Oscar Valdes - 21,000 (13bb)
