Once play folded around to Jason Mandanici-Turcot in the small blind, he moved all-in, forcing Tony “GameBoy” To to a decision in the big blind. After some thought, Tony made the call, and it was another race situation.

Stacks were very close between the two, and once the debt was paid, Tony was only left with 26,000. We’ve seen him stage a comeback from less than this just two days ago, when he ran 9,000 (1/2 of a big blind) up to 1.4 million in the final 3 tables of the WPT Montral
He managed to win his next hand, and climb up to around 5 big blinds, before finding himself all-in again versus Behram Antia. Holding , he actually made two pairs on the flop, but was drawing (almost) dead to Behram’s , and with running blanks was eliminated in 7th place.
He’s had a very strong Playground Poker Fall Classic series, as he won Event 5, made a deep run in the WPT Montreal, and final tabled the Second Chance event, totalling $77,290 in cashes!
7th place: Tony “GameBoy” To – $8,820
