Kuo Among Latest Eliminations, But Already a Winner

will_shill

Nível 11 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

With the stream of players heading to the exit continuing, Kitty Kuo was among the recent bust out slips.

But according to her at the start of play, in her mind she'd already won, having defeated Danny Tang in a last longer challenge.

"Every time I'm drunk I make stupid bets," said Kuo as play got underway. "This one was because he said that he was better than me. I'm Asian player of the year three years in a row, but he was trying to tell me that he was better than me now.

"So then I was like - f*ck it, let's bet!"

The rules of the bet were simple. If Tang outlasted Kuo, he would win two 5% pieces of her Main Event. If Kuo outlasted Tang, he had to attend a spinning class.

"In Vegas I asked him to go to the gym every day and he never went! So I really wanted to get him to try the spin class. I will make him cry at the spin class!"
