It took three hours of Day 2 play and four rounds of hand-for-hand, but the remaining 100 players in Event 1 of the Seminole Hard Rock Deep Stack Series are in the money. The fateful moment came when an unknown player in late position got his last 112,000 chips in preflop and Aventura’s Jorge Leidi called from the button. Leidi held the lead and the chip advantage holding KcKh to the potential bubble boy’s AsQc.
