Corkins Out, Kwaysser Over 200k

We came to the table when Valdemar Kwaysser was scooping the huge pot after knocking out Hoyt Corkins. Apparently there were 5-bets preflop before Corkins finally got all in with {K-}{K-} against the {A-}{A-} of Kwaysser. An {A-} hit the flop just to add insult to injury, and with no help on the turn or river, Corkins hit the rail. Kaysser on the other hand was up to around 200,000 after the hand.

When we got back to the table on the very next hand after we wrote up the Corkins knockout, he had already knocked out another player from the table and now sits with 240,000. It's been a good day for him so far.
