Big Stax 500 (Day 1A): Wallace KO's Norton

Level 11 (Blinds 800/1,600/200)
Total Day 1A Entries: 217

Sean Wallace (Horsham, PA)

Kyle Norton had just re-entered the event with the 40,000 starting stack, and was looking to build something up quick.  He shoved over an open from Sean Wallace for just under the starting stack, and after action folded back around to Sean, he made the call:

Wallace: A♦K♥
Norton: K♣ Q♥

Flop: A♥ K♠ 5♥
Turn: 9♥
River: 2♣

Sean got a big flop against Kyle, leaving Norton searching for one of the two remaining queens in the deck.  The turn and river would not bring that, and Wallace would eliminate Norton from the field and chip up to 170,000.
