Pocket tens may not be Michael "Amtrak Mike" Muniz's best friend.
"Amtrak Mike" Muniz was taking his shot at a coveted gold bracelet after another 62 hour-long Amtrak journey to the WSOP from Queens, New York.
Muniz had an opponent all-in and at risk showing his ![]()
against Mark Bryan's ![]()
.
The ![]()
![]()
![]()
board was showing and the
river meant Muniz was not able to find his outs and was left with 9,000, helping Bryan's stack grow to 42,000.
Muniz shoved all in from the big blind in the very next hand.
Michael Muniz: ![]()
