Porter Leaves a Trail of Destruction

Rep Porter took out players on back-to-back hands. First, he got all his chips in with pocket tens against an opponent's pocket sevens. He hit a ten on the flop to take down the pot.

On the very next hand, he raised to 6,100. Jimmy "gobboboy" Fricke reraised all in, and Porter quickly called. Fricke had queens; Porter had aces. Neither player improved, and Fricke was eliminated.

Porter now has over 100,000 chips and is the clear chip leader of the tournament.
