Frienemies

$3300 + $200 Championship No Limit Hold'em (Re-Entry)

Jamie Kerstetter has been milking a short stack and has been all in three out of four hands.

The results: Double, cut in half, double again, but she doesn't feel great taking chips from friend Alex Queen.

Kerstetter is in for 27k and behind with pocket 4s against Queen's pocket 7s.  The two outer hits the river and she stays alive with a set of 4s, while Queen drops to 60k.

Kerstetter likes to call the relationship "frienemies," and they were in the same situation when they squared off in the 2011 Borgata Fall Poker Open heads up tournament.  Queen won the quarterfinal match on his way to the title, but at least Kerstetter picked up a consolation prize as she still cashed in the event.

No such luck on Day 2, if you bust, you go home empty handed.
