Leonard Eidson
Leonard Eidson
Ladies and gentlemen, meet Leonard Eidson. Eidson doubled up early, and just moments ago, he was at it again, mixing things up in the biggest pot of the day so far.

The flop for the hand in question was {K-?} {7-?} {7-?}, and Eidson was involved with Charles Ford. The two men had nearly equal stacks, and they both ended up all in with two cards to come.

Showdown:
Eidson: {7-?} {7-?}
Ford: {A-?} {K-?}

Eidson had flopped quads, leaving Ford drawing to both of the remaining kings in the deck. The turn and river bricked off though, and Ford has been eliminated.

After raking in that massive pot, Leonard Eidson has put his name squarely atop the leaderboard, pacing the field with his 79,000 chips.
