Thomas Chips Up

Brent Thomas is following up his good form from the Melbourne Championships with another strong showing here today.

We recently caught him in action in a big pot against Party Poker qualifier Gabriel Alarie. The board read {3-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{A-Hearts} and Thomas had fired 5,000 as Alarie sat in the tank.

"Two pair?" questioned Alarie, but he didn't get a response and decided to fold. Thomas chips up to over 45,000 chips.
