Mark Dube

The chip leader approaching the final level of Day 1A is Mark Dube with about 432,000.

We noticed former chip leader Gabriel Abusada’s seat empty and Dube with a good 150,000 more than he had previously, so we inquired for the hand that made it happen.

Following a flop of 5h4h3h, Abusada got it in for roughly 100,000 with Ah10c against Dube’s 5x5x.

Dube faded the outs that he needed to, eliminating Abusada and ascending to the chip lead.

Mark Dube – 432,000 (288 bb)
Gabriel Abusada – Eliminated
