Event 27: 3rd Place - Way

$200 + $30 Deep Stack Semi-Turbo NLH (Re-Entry)

Kevin Way (Upper Pottsgrove, PA)
$5,649

Appropriately on Groundhog's Day Kevin Way became the monster chip-leader at a crowded final table after KK held up in back to back hands against QQ.

By the time it got to three-handed, with ballooning blinds, Kevin was looking at a short stack.

After the 5 million dollar man, David Heck, raised, Kevin made a move with Q-J and jammed.

Heck called, tabling A-6.

Way missed his cards while Heck found a nut diamond four flush.

Kevin is a small business owner who told us, "I ran good today and got lucky."

Kevin's Dad David rooted from the rail. He also played in Event 27 saying, "I donated chips to the cause".

Kevin Way finished in 3rd Place earning $5,649.
