Danny “THE_D_RY” Ryan (pictured at left) lost the entirety of his 18K stack on the last hand of play before the rebuy period ended in the $1K No Limit Hold Em with Rebuys. As the clock was expiring, the dealer began to deal out the hand, leaving Danny’s table to play out one more as everyone else began to add-on and clear out of the Amazon Room on a 30 minute break. When Ryan picked up pocket 10s he got it all in against not one, but two other players who held A-10 and A-Q respectively. When an ace came out on the flop, the 26K pot was shipped A-Q’s way and Danny was left with no other option but to start all over again with the minimum amount–6K.
Jason Gray took a bit of a hit to his stack when, on a flop of Q
7
6 he called the 2.5K all-in of his opponent while holding TT
. Gray turned out to be in bad shape against the other player’s K
K. The {4c] on the turn and 4 on the river did not improve Gray’s hand and he is back under the 10K after the completion of the hand.
Nick “fu_15″ Maimone (pictured at left) had 12.5K coming back from the break, but he took a huge hit when he got it all in with on a flop of 10-5-4 with pocket aces against his opponent’s pocket fives for a 22K pot. He got the remainder of his chips in a few hands later, but his opponent rivered a straight on him and Nick was sent to the rail.
