Brikis in His Comfort Zone

"Hey, Brikis! What's the special occasion?"

So said someone from the rail just a while ago while Josh Brikis had momentarily stood up from the table. "What?" he responded.

"You're wearing your best sweatpants," came the reply.

Brikis looked down and smiled. Indeed, he is leisurely-attired today.

Just now we saw a hand in which Matt Waxman limped from the button, Brikis also limped from the hijack seat, and it folded around to Sean Keeton who checked from the big blind.

The flop came {J-Spades}{A-Spades}{9-Hearts}. Keeton checked, Waxman bet 80,000, then Brikis raised to 225,000, forcing both to fold.

Brikis has lost the chip lead to Faraz Jaka who has crossed 4 million, but he's still sitting comfortably with a stack of 3.78 million.
