Nazgul makes the money in 54th place

AdminNazgul continued Team PokerStrategy.com's run in this year's World Series of Poker by cashing in Day 2 of the $1,500 Pot Limit Hold'em event, finishing in 54th place. This is his first cash in WSOP 2010, and his 4th WSOP cash of his career.

After making it into the money, AdminNazgul could not find the cards to take him further into the event. In the final hand of his run, he got it all in with A-T suited after a 3-bet by a young aggressive online player, whom he has had some history playing against. Unfortunately for AdminNazgul, his opponent held A-A this time around.

Meanwhile in Event #11, the rest of Team PokerStrategy.com and a few PokerStrategists were involved in the action. AdminBongBob was the last surviving PokerStrategists, ten hours into the day. Unfortunately, like the other PokerStrategists before him, AdminBongBob also hit the rails.
