Gumz had lost some chips after the break but was just involved in a hand:
The player in the under-the-gun position raised to 625. Gumz, in mid-position, raised to 2,000. Action folded back to the under-the-gun player who asked how much Gumz still had. Gumz showed him his stack which was about 9,000. He called.
The flop came 
, Gumz's opponent checked, Gumz bet 1,550. His opponent put a big stack in to raise, effectively putting Gumz all-in. Gumz snap-called.
