$3,500 Seminole Hard Rock “Rock ‘n’ Roll Poker Open” Championship
Level 4:  100/200/25 Ante

Nick Yunis is below starting stack, but he just bounced back a bit when he bet the river on a board of KhQdJh10cJc. Yunis bet 5,600 from the big blind, and his opponent tanked for a while before calling from middle position.

Yunis turned over 10h10d for a rivered full house, tens full of jacks, and his opponent mucks. Yunis takes the pot to get back up near the starting stack.

Nick Yunis  –  27,000  (135 bb)

The past two summers, Yunis has finished 1st and 2nd in the big charity event held as part of the Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open in August.

Charity events are certainly fun, but Yunis would probably like to add a championship trophy to his resume.
