This is from the final of the stars $55 rebuy tonight, just a bit of background this guy had been unlucky a few hands previously but wasn't on tilt i don't think. I was also into the business end of
the $162 final on Party at the same time so this didn't have my undivided attention . I had been playing fairly tight and only shown a set of 99 which i just flat called preflop.
