Miami John Cernuto collapsed during Event #44 ($2,500 Razz) of an apparent heart attack.
According to a Daniel Negreanu tweet:
“Unscheduled break. Miami John just collapsed. Looks like a heart attack.”
According to DanM at Pokerati, it looked like Cernuto was asleep at the table, but then people noticed he wasn’t really breathing, so they rushed him out. He was apparently able to use his cell phone on the way out, so we can only assume he’ll be OK.
Cernuto is still stacked at 21,300. Get full chip counts here.

You guys USED to be funny. What the fuck happened?
Sadly, a heart attack playing Razz makes perfect sense.
