Slim Hits 50K

Amarillo Slim made it 2,600 to go from under the gun and the lone caller was the big blind.

The flop came {4-Clubs}

and the big blind bet out 3,000; Slim called. The turn brought the {J-Spades}

and the big blind checked to Slim, who tossed out a 4,300 bet, after which his opponent mucked.

The hand brought Slim's chip count past the 50,000 mark on the day, which puts him in the top 10 percent of the field.

Though he hasn't played many tournaments over the past couple of years, Slim is once again showing the world why he's a living legend and one of the game's all-time greats.
