Maurice Minor Now Maurice Major

Maurice Whelan has gone nuts, not literally, like screaming about badgers and dressing as a wheelie-bin, but he's managed to turn his 6,000 into almost 200,000 in about 15 minutes.

He was all-in once more with {K-Clubs} {9-Hearts} against Tom Hanlon's {K-Spades} {8-Diamonds} and won once more on an {A-Hearts} {9-Spades} {4-Diamonds} {6-Spades} {10-Diamonds}.

With just 3,000, Hanlon exited on the very next hand.
