Toronto, Canada's Nick Alafogiannis has snatched up the early chip lead thanks to one massive hand.

Alafogiannis might have thought he was flipping when he called one opponent's shove with {a-}{k-}. Turns out he wasn't, as his opponent had pocket kings.

No matter, Alafogiannis spiked an ace to crack the cowboys, and is now closing in on 70,000 as play moves through the third level of the day.
