Bill Jordanou has just won a huge race to fly up the chip count leaderboard late on Day 1a and end the tournament of Ed Coughlan.

Jordanou had the overcards with {A-Spades}{K-Spades} against the pair of eights for Coughlan. Jordanou would need to improve, and that's exactly what he did when the board fell {Q-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{5-Spades}{J-Clubs}{J-Hearts} to give him the straight to collect the pot and jump up to close to 100,000 chips.
