Uresti III One Step Closer

Lawrence Uresti III and Jillian Singerman started at the same table and had a little extra incentive seeing each other across the table. Both are competing in the Onnit Labs Last Sticker Standing Contest, where the last player standing will pocket a cool $5,000.

Singerman recently busted, but Uresti III has had a tumultuous, yet solid day. He was off to a great start with more than 70,000, then found himself back to about the starting stack. He has since moved back to about the 70,000-chip mark, but we just recently watched him take a minor hit.

Picking up the action on an {8-Spades}{5-Clubs}{2-Spades} flop, Uresti III was faced with a bet of 1,150 from an opponent. He called to see the {6-Diamonds} turn where his opponent bet again, this time for 2,300. Another call from Uresti III landed the {9-Clubs} river. Both players quickly checked and Uresti III tabled {K-Spades}{4-Spades} for a missed flush draw.

His opponent tabled {10-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} to take down the pot, but Uresti III still has more than double his starting stack, currently sitting with about 62,000.
