Big Pot on Level 1
Level 1
: 100/100, 100 ante
One of the first big pots of Day 1b developed 10 minutes into the opening level, with Barry Birdwell on the winning end.
With about 15,000 chips in the middle by the river, the board read 
. Birdwell, from the small blind checked, and his opponent on the button thought it over for a bit before electing to check back.
Birdwell flipped over 
for the low end of the straight, but it was good in this case against the opponent's 
for top set.
