On the last hand of play, Julio Novo limped from the small blind and Marcus Seitz jammed from the big.

Julio counted out his remaining chips — 42,600 — and decided he didn’t want to return for day 2 with only 10 big blinds so he called all-in.  “I didn’t want you to call, I just wanted to take what’s out there” Marcus said as he showed his 7d7c.

Julio rolled over 8c5c and figured he could jump into Flight C which is just getting rolling if he busted.

The board changed his plans, however, as it ran out Ts8s6cJcKs giving Julio a pair of 8s and the double-up.
