Kapoor Doubles on First Hand of Final Table
Level 25
: Blinds 30,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
On the first hand back from break, Jason Kapoor and Kevin Malis got it in preflop, with Kapoor at risk.
Jason Kapoor: 
Kevin Malis: 
Kapoor was in front with his cowboys and the 
runout was clean as he doubled up to nearly two million.
It's been quite a spin-up for Kapoor. He only had a single big blind left not too long ago, now he's sitting among the leaders. He is mourning the unexpected death of a close friend and has dedicated his play today to him.
