Starting With a Bang!

John Nixon now with over a million chips

On the second hand back from dinner, Frank Vizza opened for 110,000 on the button. Samuel Chartier folded in the small blind and then John Nixon moved all in for 615,000 total from the big blind. Vizza quickly made the call.

Showdown:
Vizza: {K-Spades} {Q-Hearts}
Nixon: {A-Hearts} {4-Diamonds}

The crowd stood from their chairs and gathered as closely to the rail as possible. The dealer then dealt the flop: {10-Spades} {7-Hearts} {6-Hearts}. Nixon's ace high was still in the lead going to the turn.

The turn brought the {5-Clubs} and kept Nixon in the lead.

The river was the {2-Clubs} and just like that, Nixon doubled through Vizza and now has over one million chips. Vizza was left with around 300,000.
