With the tournament clock reading 212 entries, the $125 Thursday Thrilla No-Limit Hold'em event has become the largest event at the 2015 Run It Up Reno festival. The previous best was 180 entries, but this event is well past that and still climbing. Registration and reentry will remain open through Level 8.
We just found DraftKings qualifier Kody MacGuire playing at a table with Brent Harrington, the latter of which he managed to just win quite a significant pot.
MacGuire managed to win his seat to Run it Up Reno in the PGA daily fantasy competition in the second week of qualifying, and is currently enjoying the trip of a lifetime. The youngster from the picturesque town of St. John's in Newfoundland, Canada had never been in a casino before up until this trip, and currently he's sitting on a lot of chips in the early goings of this event.
On the hand we just witnessed it was Harrington who raised to 700 and two players called, including MacGuire in the small blind and the player in the big blind.
The flop came down 
and all three players quickly checked after which the turn brought the 
. Both blinds checked to Harrington again, and he bet 1,500. Both blinds made the call and on the river the 
hit and again there were two checks before Harrington bet 3,200.
MacGuire made the call and showed 
, and Harrington's 
went into the pick.
