Big Stax 300 (Day 1A): Taking A Break Before Returning

Level 11 (Blinds 800/1,600/200)
Total Day 1A Entries: 438

Jason Paster (Morganville, NJ) was mentioned earlier in the day when he arrived, but ended up busting only a few levels in.  Paster was up in the air about re-entering today, so he left the room for the afternoon.  Jason returned right after the dinner break ended, and he just doubled his starting stack moments ago.  The hand was caught just as Benjamin Scholl called Paster's 30,000 all-in pre, with the hands tabled seconds later.  Jason would lead the way with 9 9♣ against the 8♣ 8♠ of Scholl, and after the 9♠ J♣ J♠ flop, Scholl would need a miracle to steal the hand away.  The turn would have Ben drawing dead, and Paster would double to 71,000.  After absorbing the loss, Scholl would be left with just over the starting stack (35,000).
