Bart Spijkers leads the Main Event, and not by a small margin either. He holds 165,000, about twice as big a stack as anyone else we've seen so far.

Spijkers told us he cold called a three-bet to 4,000. Holding pocket tens, the flop came a beautiful {2-}{5-}{10-}. A blank fell on the turn and his opponent checked. Spijkers bet 14,000 and his opponent went deep into the tank.

"After about "10 minutes" in the tank, he shoved all in. I thought about 1 second and called" Bart Spijkers said with a big smile.

Spijkers needed to dodge two outs as his opponent tabled {K-}{K-}. The river was a blank and Spijkers doubled.
