Mader Meets His Maker

Chad Holloway

Level 13 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Nebraska farmer Phil Mader just met his maker, and his name is Bob Slezak.

We learned the details after the fact, but according to Slezak, Mader had opened with a raise. Slezak called, as did another player, and the flop came down jack-high. Mader bet, Slezak just called, and the third player got out of the way. Long story short, Mader held , Slezak , and the two got it in on the turn.

Slezak's hand held, and Mader was left to decided whether or not to jump into the Day 1c flight, which is currently playing out on the other side of the room.
