Level 12: 800/1,600 with a 200 ante
Flight B Players Remaining: 49/250

A player in middle position limped in, Michael Tait completed the small blind, and the player in the big blind raised all in for about 22,000. The initial limper folded, and Tait called with Ac10c, racing with the big blind’s 5s5c.

The board came down 10h7h2cQs9s, giving Tait a pair of tens to eliminate his opponent.

Michael Tait – 88,000 (55 bb)

Not long ago, Tait lost an all-in confrontation and thought he was out. A few levels later, Tait is sitting on a comfortable stack as play enters the final two levels of the night.
