Hall Takes a Hit

Zachary Hall (Day 1b) takes a hit.
Zachary Hall (Day 1b) takes a hit.

Zachary Hall entered the day with over 300,000 chips, but has been cut down significantly after losing a big race to Robert Corcione. All of the chips went into the middle preflop, and Hall held {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} against Corcione's {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}.

The board ran out {2-Spades}{9-Spades}{7-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{6-Spades}, and Corcione won the pot.

It took the dealer three attempts to count down Corcione's stack however, and each time it was less and less. Finally, after checking and re-checking, the count was 132,900, leaving Hall with around 118,500.
