Big Stax 1500 (Day 3): 9th Place - Mazza ($11,398)

Level 24 - Blinds 15,000/30,000/5,000

Gene Mazza (Elizabeth, NJ)

9th Place - $11,398

Gene Mazza had only 40,000 chips left when he pushed all-in under the gun, and it was going to be tough sailing as six players called!!  If Gene was to win the hand he would chip up to over 300,000, but on the flop of K♣ 10♠ 6♣, Danny Warchol fired out into the field (which folded around).  Warchol turned over K♥ 10♥ against the A♦ 2♥ of Mazza.  Gene would spike an ace on the river for the needle, but it would still be the end of his day.

Danny Warchol - 2,700,000

Gene Mazza - Eliminated
