It's got to be tough being the short-stack and having the chip leader on your immediate left. That's the situation Daniel Lombardi (Huntington, NY) found himself in today.
Daniel Lombardi and George Cicak
He had anted and blinded his way down to only 2k in chips. Those went in for his ante (he was in the cutoff seat) and he was all-in before the cards were even dealt. Action folded to chip leader George Cicak on the button, who flat-called. Both blinds came along for the ride and checked down the board of 5 3 2 T 4.
Daniel held Q3 suited for a pair of 3s, but George had an Ace for the wheel to take the pot.
Daniel is today's bubble-boy and was a good sport about it as he left the tournament area.
The remaining 120 players are all in the money and guaranteed to cash for at least $1,000.
