A Triple-KO for @BlueHoodiePoker


There's a big crowd gathering around the middle table, what say we all go over and see what's taking place.

Look, there's a bunch of players with all their stacks in the middle, and most of them are standing up behind their chairs. The only one seated is Corey Hochman (above), and there's a good reason, but I'll get to that in a minute.

Preflop, raise, raise, raise, all-in, all-in, all-in, call ... four players are all-in.

Player A - Kc Kc
Players B - Kc Kc
Mike Puccio - Kc Kc

What about Hochman, and why is he the only one sitting down?
A) he has everyone covered.
B) He has Kc Kc

The flop comes out Kc Kc Kc, top pair for Player A, backdoor Broadway draw for Player B, Puccio has a gutter straight draw, Hochman still has the best hand and picked up the best backdoor flush draw too.

Turn is Kc, river is Kc and most all of the chips in the entire building go sliding towards Hochman.

No, really, he's now not just the Day 1C chipleader, he has more chips than anyone in Days 1A or 1B bagged, and he still has 3+ more levels to play tonight

Corey Hochman - 180,000

Players are on a 15-minute break. Registration closes when cards go back in the air, and action moves to

Level - 10
Blinds - 500/1000
Antes - 100
Entries - at least 60

When a player who is NOT in the hand calls for the cameras to come over, that's a pretty good sign there's plenty of action taking place. I show up to see a       flop and three players - including David Rounds (above) - all in and their cards already tabled. Rounds is showing     for top set Challenger 1 is showing     for bottom set Challenger 2 has     for flush and straight flush draws The turn   completes the flush and makes the straight flush draw now a Royal draw. Rounds finds Barry Greenstein,   on the river and it goes boat-over-boat-over-flush. The player with the flush, who came from behind to take the lead on the turn, is eliminated and Rounds moves to 61,000. Level - 4 Blinds - 100/200 Antes - 25 Entries - 40 -- Dan Ross
