Chris "Jesus" Ferguson is playing in two events today--Day One of the $1,500 No-Limit event and Day Two of the 2-7 Triple Draw w/Rebuys. Now, quite a few pros have done that so far during the World Series--they try to build up a big stack to last them while they're playing in the other event.
But Ferguson has been literally running back and forth between his two seats. He moved all-in for at his no-limit table, won a 4K pot, and raced back to his Triple Draw seat. A few minutes later he reappeared in the No-Limit event and moved all-in for his last 3,700. He had A-8 against A-Q...and spiked an Eight on the river to double up again. And then he was off again to the Triple Draw event.
So if you happen to see Jesus walking toward you, get out of his way. He's in a hurry.
