It's Trippy to Rock a Rhyme, to Rock a Rhyme That's Right on Time

"This speech is my recital, I think it's very vital
To rock (a rhyme), that's right (on time)
It's tricky Trippy is the title, here we go..."

We reported Tripp Kirk as the end of Day 1 chip leader when actuality it was the now departed Blake Barousse; nonetheless, only a few thousands separated the two. While Kirk is still alive, he hasn't gotten much going today. Despite that, he is still sitting with an above-average stack.

In a recent hand, an early-position player opened for 5,200 and found a caller in the form of Kirk from the big blind. The latter proceeded to check-call a bet of 7,200 on the {2-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{10-Spades} flop before both players checked the {10-Diamonds} turn. When the {5-Hearts} appeared on the river, Kirk took the initiative and bet 15,600, which was enough to take down the pot. Immediately after, Kirk's table was broken.
