"Typical"

Billy the Croc has just busted a player with Aces, increasing his stack to just under 30,000. At the end of the hand, Billy quipped:

"Typical, in a $175 tournament I get hit with the deck!"

Chris Wood= New Chip Leader

All the money went in on a flop of {A-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} with Chris Wood holding {A-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for top pair and a flush draw and his opponent showing {4-Spades}{4-Hearts} for a set. The turn was the {K-Clubs}, making his opponent a full house and leaving Wood drawing to only the two remaining aces or Kings. Wouldn't you know, the river was the {A-Clubs} and Wood dragged the 18,000 pot, catapulting him to the top of the leaderboard.
