His opponent, whom his tablemates say has "hit the deck hard" (he did not confirm or deny this) has two and a half times the starting stack already in Level 3, but apparently can't beat four of a kind.
Also on this unevenly-stacked table is Ali Zihni, who's just become eligible to play in this event. Of his WSOP so far, he says, "I've been having a disaster. But there's still time!"
