Raskin Relentlessly Reentering
We just saw Micah Raskin stride past the PokerNews Live Reporting desk, and judging by the stern look of consternation on his face - along with the orange seat card clenched tightly in his hand - he had just reentered yet again.
Raskin has been dogged in pursuit of a big stack during the first three starting flights of this $560 buy-in, $1 million guaranteed prize pool event. Despite his perseverance though, Raskin has been engaged in Sisyphean struggle of sorts, starting with 25,000 chips at one table and struggling to push forward, before inevitably plummeting back to where he began.
By our rough count Raskin has fired anywhere between six and eight bullets at this event, and while the veteran of Europe's high-roller circuit can certainly afford the expenditure of funds, he will likely have to make a very deep run simply to earn a profit.
With Level 9 recently concluded the reentry period for Day 1c has officially ended, so this will be Raskin's last bullet of this starting flight. But with Day 1d set to start at 7 p.m. local time, Raskin could very well be rolling that onerous rock up the same hill later this evening.
