Kihara Starts As He Finishes; Car Crash For MacPhee

Naoya Kihara was the runaway leader yesterday and it's nice to see that a few hours rest has not changed anything. The man from Japan is still picking up monster Pot-Limit Omaha hands. Chris De Maci raised to 28,000 in first position - generally a sign of strength - and yet Jason DeWitt raised 'pot' when he made it 102,000 to play. Kihara was seated in the small blind and he re-potted it, making it 346,000 to play, and both players mucked their hands quicker than you could say Saki.

In other news one of our short stacks Kevin MacPhee has arrived late. Unfortunately, for MacPhee he has suffered a car accident in the Rio car park. But don't worry all you legions of MacPhee fans, the man is unhurt and has his head on winning his first bracelet.
