Hamburg, NY's Mike Shavensky flopped a set of eights and found one opponent all too willing to get all in with top pair.

He also hit a king with ace-king to drag one of a number of small early pots, helping his stack grow exponentially.

Heading into the day's sixth level he has almost tripled his starting chips and is among the early leaders.
