Level 7
: 300/600, 75 ante
Down to his last 14,200 chips, a short-stacked Philip Long got them in holding 
against an opponent with a little more than 16,000 behind. His opponent held 
and was in great shape to score the knockout and almost double up. A miracle would intervene as the eight hit the flop to save Long’s tournament, allowing him to earn slightly more than his original stack when he took his seat on Day 1a.
