Level 25 (Blinds 20,000/40,000/5,000)
Total Entries: 1,651
Players Remaining: 27
It took a little while, but we just had the first memorable moment of the day. Chip leader Chris Kostoulas and Joe Shinn got it in pre for a pot worth 2,700,000, with Shinn experiencing a tournament players worst nightmare when the cards were exposed:
Shinn: A♦ A♠
Kostoulas: K♣ K♥
Flop: K♠ 10♠ 7♣
Turn: 10♣
River: A♣
Shinn would jump from his chair in disgust when he saw the flop, sick that Chris out flopped him. Scott Blackman mentioned when the hands were tabled that he folded an ace, so it made the river that much more dramatic. Shinn went to frustration to celebration after rivering the bigger full house, and he is now sitting with an above average stack. The chip leader gets 20% taken from his stack, but it still one of the healthiest in the field.
