Event 2: Hand Of The Tournament

$260 + $40 No Limit Hold'em (Re-Entry)

Joe Gatmaitan (Philadelphia) - 550,000

Now we have a definitive chip leader and his name is Joe Gatmaitan from Philadelphia.

Joe started the hand with 252,500. After some initial raises, Adam Lippert ships his newly acquired big stack and has his Opponent's covered.

Eli Lowenthal tanks and finally folds A-K.

Joe, looking down at QQ, quickly calls off his entire stack - at risk.

"He claimed he had AA in the 5-bet hand so I said if he has em again, he has em again" - explained Gatmaitan who prayed his ladies were ahead.

Lippert shows JJ and the board remained dry.
Eli was patting himself on the back with the big slick laydown.

Two hands later Lippert was on the rail in 37th place for $605.

New chip leader with four tables to go.
