: 800/1,600, 200 ante
Jimmy Nistas entered the day as one of our leaders, but after losing a series of pots he is captaining a starting stack of 30,000.
On the hand we witnessed, Nistas was faced with a raise to 3,500 from a player in early position. From the small blind, he three-bet to 9,000, and the player called. Both players knuckled on a flop of 
, the turn was the 
, and Nistas checked again.
The player tossed out a single T5,000 chip, Nistas matched it, and the 
completed the board. Nistas begrudgingly check-called a bet of 12,000, then threw his hands into the air in disgust when the player showed 
for a rivered flush.
