A player pushed all in from middle position for 7,350 after a {7-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{7-Clubs} flop, and Keith Addison made the call on the button. The big blind called as well, and an {8-Clubs} turned. The big blind slowly stacked his chips and placed them in the middle, and Addison excitedly announced a call.

"That looks like the nuts," a player said as Addison tabled his holding. Not quite, but close:

Addison: {10-Spades}{7-Spades}
Middle position: {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}
Big blind: {k-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}

Addison's boat held on the {k-Clubs} river, and he busted two opponents.

Jason Smith has amassed a huge early stack.

We didn't catch the exact action, but a series of bets and raises resulted in Jason Smith getting a shorter stack all in on a board of {k-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}.

Smith: {j-Clubs}{2-Clubs}
Opponent: {k-Diamonds}{10-Spades}

Smith had his opponent crushed with trips, and he dodged the two-outer on the {a-Hearts} river. He has the biggest stack we've seen in the early going.

Players are now on a 10-minute break.
