Bobby Consolo bagged up 73,000 on Day 1, but this morning both his wife and daughter were very sick, and he wasn’t able to get here until about two hours after play started.

When he arrived, his stack of 73,000 had been blinded down to 16,000, worth about two big blinds at that point. Ouch.

But Consolo battled back, and in the last hand before the dinner break, the under-the-gun player raised, and Consolo called from middle position. The flop came rainbow, the UTG player checked, Consolo bet 100,000, and his opponent called.

The turn was a low card, his opponent checked, Consolo bet 150,000, and his opponent check-raised all in for about 380,000. Consolo called with for trip kings, and his opponent was drawing dead with (two pair). Consolo scored the knockout to build his stack up to 1.34 million in chips.
