$150 No Limit Hold’em (Re-Entry)

Level 11:  Blinds 800/1,600/300 ante

Nick Tzoumas (Tampa, FL) doesn’t usually play poker.  “I play BlackJack.  This is only my third tournament ever,” he said.

His two friends/coworkers “dragged” him here today to play and now all three are seated at the same table.  Nick is a freight broker and during our chat, a discussion broke out with his friends over who was the best seller among them.  Nick had to concede that point, I believe.

When Nick found out they will not quit for the night until the end of level 14, about 2am, he said “I’ve got to work tomorrow!”   If he survives until the bag & tag, he’s going to have to cut his night’s rest short to be at work on time.

With 25 players remaining, the average stack is 54k.  Nick’s doing well with about 80k.
