Birthday Championship for Haletky
What a way to celebrate a birthday.
Jaime Haletky - runner-up in the 2016 Ante Up World Championships here, took one step up the pay ladder and today claimed the 2017 Ante Up NorCal Classic title, deafeating Justin Mackey is a lengthy heads-up match.
Haletky joins two others with top-two finishes in Ante Up Main Events at TVPokerRoom.
- Michael Loncar has won the NorCal Classic twice
- Justo Avalos was first and second in back-to-back years in the Ante Up World Championships
- Haletky now has a first in the NorCal Classic and his runner-up in the World Championships.
There's an entry in the 2018 Ante Up World Championships for Haletky as part of his $49,865 firs place winnings, so he'll be back looking to be the first to three-peat a top-two finish.
Now it is time for him to head off and celebrate the rest of this special day for him ... today is Jaime Haletky's birthday .... quite the celebration.

Double and Back
@JustinMackey73 has Jaime Haletky all in and behind. Mackey has Ace_King, Haletky Ace_Ten, and there's a King on the flop .... a Queen on the turn ... Jack on the river and Haletky four-straights out.
Mackey is down to 300k, moves all in the next hand and Haletky calls with King_Eight in case Mackey is on tile.
Well, Mackey woke up with Kings .. he holds and most of the chips flip back.
