Level 16
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
The ten remaining players are on a 15-minute break.
Level 16
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Since hand-for-hand play started more than two hours ago, Anthony Vaughn and David Jiang have been the shortest stacks in the field.
For a moment after doubling up Vaughn, and before he busted, Mel Lyon was the shortest. Other than those few hands, Jiang and Vaughn have been the shortest of the stacks.
They have either gotten shoves through when they needed to, or doubled when they finally got low enough to get called and they stayed ahead. The two players have managed to capture at least tenth place money ($2,800). Their patience paid off when Scott Heiser got busted with over 100,000 chips to burst the bubble and they outlasted Mel Lyon.
