Less-Than Klassic Kuhler Gives Kuhlmann The Lead

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante
Dietrich Kuhlmann
Dietrich Kuhlmann

Dietrich Kuhlmann called a 750-chip open with the {5-}{6-} and another player came along for the ride.

The raiser led for 3,000 on a {5-}{5-}{j-} flop and after Kuhlmann made it 9,000, the third player in the hand pushed in for 25,000 with the {5-}{2-}. The raiser called with the {a-}{j-}, Kuhlmann called all in for less and then hit a six to fill up.

When the dust settled, Kuhlmann had 50,000 and the Level 4 lead heading into the day's first break.

Alex Avdelopoulos
Alex Avdelopoulos

Toronto, Ontario, Canada's Alex Avdelopoulos has joined the early leaders now.

His hot start has included a number of pots won without having to go to showdown.

"I've just been getting lucky," he told PokerNews. Not sure where Avdelopoulos stands on the issue, but the old adage is it's better to be lucky than good.

Deskovich On Fire

Level 2 : 75/150, 0 ante
Josh Deskovich
Josh Deskovich

Local grinder Josh Deskovich has jumped out to the early lead after a blazing hot first level.

It was the {a-Hearts}{5-Hearts} over the {j-Hearts}{2-Hearts} that really got things going for Deskovich, as he made flush over flush to stack an opponent. Picking up kings and aces didn't hurt either, and he's on top of the leaderboard now.
