Aces Create a New Chip Leader

Level 22 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

As the end of the day closes in there are several big stacks in the room.

Kyle Shigano propelled himself close to the chip lead thanks to a sick cooler between his {a-}{a-} and the {a-}{k-} of Eric Baldwin. The two players went all in before the flop, and the aces of Shigano held up when the dust settled.

Baldwin was left short and was eliminated from the tournament on the very next hand.
