Big Stax 300 (Day 3): 17th Place - Eriquezzo ($3,056)

Level 26 (Blinds 25,000/50,000/5,000)
Players Remaining: 16

Ryan Eriquezzo (Danbury, CT)
17th Place - $3,056

At Table 58 Rajesh Desai was all-in UTG with a full table to act, but as the action folded around, there was an all-in and call between Staffan Lind and Ryan Eriquezzo.  Ryan's K 10 < 9 9 of Staffan Lind, and although Ryan busts in 17th place, he was to this point the story of the tournament.

Eriquezzo was in the tournament for 10 bullets after all the starting days had finished, without bagging anything.  He came back yesterday morning and bought in with the starting stack (6 bigs), and proceeded to run it up, and put himself in serious contention for this title.  He couldn't recover from the brutal cooler against Lind earlier, and recoups some of the money he put into the event.
