Level 26 (Blinds 25,000/50,000/5,000)
Total Entries: 1,651
Players Remaining: 24

Jim Tesone (Princeton, NJ) was one of the shortest stacks returning from break, and it only took one hand for him to get it in pre against Geoff Cudd.  "Let's see how it works for me," Tesone said as he turned over A 3, referencing the hand earlier when Cudd doubled with those same holdings:

Tesone: A♠ 3♣
Cudd: 8♠ 8♦

Flop: A♣ K♦ 9♣
Turn: 8♣
River: 4♥

"How bad do I run," said Tesone after the eight spiked the turn, sending him home in 25th place ($2,729).  Cudd has now gone from a stack that was less than ten big blinds to over 2,000,000 with that pot.
