Kavermann Swaps The One Drop for the $1.5k

Matthew Pitt

Level 7 : 150/300, 25 ante

Yesterday, Byron Kaverman bought into the $111,111 buy-in One Drop High Rollers event. Unfortunately, for him at least, Kavermann's tournament didn't exactly go to plan and he busted out. Rather than sit on the sidelines and feel sorry for himself, Kaverman jumped straight into the next tournament that he could find, which happened to be the $1,500 No Limit Hold'em Event that you are reading about.

His appearance set us wondering how you alter your mindset to play in a tournament that costs only $1,500 to enter when you were playing in one costing $111,111 only a few hours ago. He seems to have made the necessary adjustments because he's up to 10,100 from his 9,000 stack, not a huge leap but it's progress nonetheless.

Also doing OK for himself is Dutchman Ruben Visser. The reigning EPT London Main Event champion has added 4,100 chips to his stack since we last checked on him and is now armed with 11,300 and is cruising along nicely. Visser is looking for what would be his third-ever WSOP cash here in Event #49.
