He's Back and Stronger Than Ever
Level 4
: Limits 500/1,000, 0 ante
Just before the dinner break, a friendly rivalry formed when Erik Mason blind bet flop, turn and river with Q♦Q♣ on a board that read J♦5♥4♣7♦6♠ only to be raised by Greg Back who showed the K♦8♦ after he was called. Mason chirped up that Back was just in the tournament for the free drinks.
After returning from dinner break the two battled once more, just moments after Back spilled his drink.
Mason raised from the small blind and was called by Back in the big blind. Again, Mason had a bet loaded for every street on K♦8♠7♦10♥K♥ but when he showed the 9♣8♣ for two-pair, Back declared three of a kind and showed K♠2♠.
Mason made mention that Back was running hot and Back grumbled in agreement.
